Not too much goin' on today, so thought I'd tell you about a new paper out in @nejm.org w/Angrist, Gao, and Yeh

We explain & demonstrate why instrumental variable methods are essential for trials of medical interventions that fail to play out as intended

📢New WP w/ @borusyak.bsky.social

We derive the most powerful recentered IVs for formula treatments & propose an algorithm for approximating them

This approach yields *huge* power gains, relative to conventional simulated IV, when estimating Medicaid crowdout effects

Check it out! t.co/UPg2XQBefN

TIL Abraham Wald, who famously worked on selection bias in assessing aircraft damage, died in a plane crash :(

The latter is probably the most realistic case. See p 15-16 of the draft for a discussion of how the choice of evaluation metric can be captured by our definition of systemic discrimination
