Beginning with the philosophical developments of causality as the study of etiology, confounding and the counterfactual framework will be explained. The propensity score and the concept of covariate balance will then be considered. Finally, estimators of marginal effects will be considered, focusing first on the effect of a time-fixed treatment and then proceeding to the more complex setting of time-varying treatments.<\/p>\n<p>Sub-sections<br \/>\n1. <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.dme.ufrj.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Moodie-Rio-Part1-handout.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Causality, confounding and the counterfactual framework<\/a><br \/>\n2. <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.dme.ufrj.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Moodie-Rio-Part2-handout.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marginal effects for time-fixed treatments<\/a><br \/>\n3. <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.dme.ufrj.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Moodie-Rio-Part3-handout.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marginal effects for time-varying treatments<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dia: 28\/04\/2016 Horario: 9h as 12h e 13:30h as 16:30h  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-927","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-seminarios"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/927","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=927"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/927\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":928,"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/927\/revisions\/928"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=927"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=927"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ppge.im.ufrj.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=927"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
