Better Understanding Triple Differences Estimators

Marcelo Ortiz-Villavicencio, Pedro H. C. Sant'Anna

Triple Differences (DDD) designs are widely used in empirical work to relax parallel trends assumptions in Difference-in-Differences (DiD) settings. This paper highlights that comm…

Doubly Robust Difference-in-Differences Estimators

Pedro H. C. Sant'Anna, Jun B. Zhao

This article proposes doubly robust estimators for the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT) in difference-in-differences (DID) research designs. In contrast to alternative…

Covariate Distribution Balance via Propensity Scores

Pedro H. C. Sant'Anna, Xiaojun Song, Qi Xu

This paper proposes new estimators for the propensity score that aim to maximize the covariate distribution balance among different treatment groups. Heuristically, our proposed pr…

Program Evaluation with Right-Censored Data

Pedro H. C. Sant'Anna

In a unified framework, we provide estimators and confidence bands for a variety of treatment effects when the outcome of interest, typically a duration, is subjected to right cens…
