In this tutorial, we are going to see how to estimate the causal effect of a treatment on an outcome when treatment assignment is not random, but we observe both treated and untreated units before and after treatment.

If you search “permutation test” on Wikipedia, you get the following definition: A permutation test (also called re-randomization test) is an exact statistical hypothesis test making use of the proof by contradiction in which the distribution of the test statistic under the null hypothesis is obtained by calculating all possible values of the test statistic under possible rearrangements of the observed data.

In this tutorial, we are going to see how to design the most welfare-improving policy in presence of treatment effect heterogeneity and treatment costs or budget constraints. Requisites For this tutorial, I assume you are familiar with the following concepts:

In this tutorial, we are going to see how to estimate causal effects when the treatment is not unconditionally randomly assigned, but we need to condition on observable features in order to assume treatment exogeneity.

In this tutorial, we are going to see how to estimate causal effects when treatment assignment is not random, but determined by a forcing variable such as a test or a requirement.

In this page, I collect lectures and materials for graduate courses in Economics and Social Sciences. I will only link to lectures and materials that are freely available. I will not link to courses hosted on MOOC websites or that require university credentials to access.

In this page, I collect information about conferences in Economics and Finance. If you know about public conferences or meetings that are missing from this list, please either contact me or edit the table on Github!

Welcome to my tutorial on how to set up a remote machine and deploy your code there. I will first analyze SSH and then look at two specific applications: coding in Python and Julia.

Ok, this is a fun post. I am choosing… my color palette! I have decided to unify all the color palettes I have on my website, slides, graphs, etc… into a unique universal color palette.

In this page I collect information about online seminars in Economics. If you know about public seminars that are missing from this list, please either contact me or edit the table on Github!
