Factorial designs, model selection, and (incorrect) inference in randomized experiments

K Muralidharan, M Romero, K Wüthrich - Review of Economics and …, 2023 - direct.mit.edu
Factorial designs are widely used to study multiple treatments in one experiment. While t-
tests using a fully-saturated “long” model provide valid inferences,“short” model t-tests (that …

Inference under covariate-adaptive randomization

FA Bugni, IA Canay, AM Shaikh - Journal of the American Statistical …, 2018 - Taylor & Francis

Optimality of matched-pair designs in randomized controlled trials

Y Bai - American Economic Review, 2022 - aeaweb.org
In randomized controlled trials, treatment is often assigned by stratified randomization. I
show that among all stratified randomization schemes that treat all units with probability one …

Covariate-adjusted Fisher randomization tests for the average treatment effect

A Zhao, P Ding - Journal of Econometrics, 2021 - Elsevier
Fisher's randomization test (frt) delivers exact p-values under the strong null hypothesis of
no treatment effect on any units whatsoever and allows for flexible covariate adjustment to …
