New method combines randomization tests with treatment-effect models

Researchers have developed a new method for conducting model-assisted randomization tests in randomized panel experiments. This approach combines the inferential validity of randomization tests with the ability of flexible treatment-effect models to capture complex heterogeneity. The technique estimates an unsigned version of the conditional average treatment effect (CATE) from the residual covariance structure, leaving the actual assignments for inference and allowing the sign to be chosen to best fit observed outcomes. This method controls Type I error and improves power compared to existing alternatives, while also enabling the discovery of heterogeneous subgroups and testing subgroup-specific effects. AI

    Fit CATE Once: Model-Assisted Randomization Tests Without Sample Splitting

    Randomization tests and flexible treatment-effect models offer complementary strengths for analyzing data from randomized panel experiments: the former provide valid inference under the known assignment mechanism, while the latter can capture complex patterns of effect heterogene…
