Hi Richard, could you share an example of frequentists proving good properties of Bayesian estimators?

For a step by step intro to poststratification, we cover it here (again, code-heavy; conceptual explanation in the book): theissbendixen.com/dag-book/cha...

We have an intro book on causal inference as part of Sage's QASS series coming out next year, so won't be of use for you right now, but the companion website (code-heavy) is live and might provide some inspiration

Seems analogous to how, in the missing data literature, reasonable folks recommend a complete case analysis alongside any fancy imputation? Can be useful to see what the adjustment is doing descriptively, or even in terms of broader sensitivity/robustness checks ("totality of evidence" and all that)

Don't remember having seen Dirichlet processes used this way, any chance you could point to a rationale and/or implementation? Thanks!

Depends on the model, of course, but with a simple post ~ pre + treatment, I don't immediately see why you couldn't put an informative prior on pre (and/or treatment, given relevant data)?

Sure, I think you could just borrow information for the controls on the raw scale?
