商品描述

An observational study infers the effects caused by a treatment, policy, program, intervention, or exposure in a context in which randomized experimentation is unethical or impractical. One task in an observational study is to adjust for visible pretreatment differences between the treated and control groups. Multivariate matching and weighting are two modern forms of adjustment. This handbook provides a comprehensive survey of the most recent methods of adjustment by matching, weighting, machine learning and their combinations. Three additional chapters introduce the steps from association to causation that follow after adjustments are complete.

When used alone, matching and weighting do not use outcome information, so they are part of the design of an observational study. When used in conjunction with models for the outcome, matching and weighting may enhance the robustness of model-based adjustments. The book is for researchers in medicine, economics, public health, psychology, epidemiology, public program evaluation, and statistics who examine evidence of the effects on human beings of treatments, policies or exposures.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一項觀察性研究推斷在無法進行隨機實驗的情況下，治療、政策、計劃、干預或暴露所引起的效應。觀察性研究的一個任務是調整處理組和對照組之間可見的預處理差異。多變量匹配和加權是兩種現代調整方法。本手冊提供了最新的匹配、加權、機器學習及其組合的綜合調查。另外三章介紹了在調整完成後從關聯到因果的步驟。

當單獨使用匹配和加權時，它們不使用結果信息，因此它們是觀察性研究設計的一部分。當與結果模型一起使用時，匹配和加權可以增強基於模型的調整的穩健性。本書適用於醫學、經濟學、公共衛生、心理學、流行病學、公共計劃評估和統計學等領域的研究人員，他們研究治療、政策或暴露對人類的影響的證據。
