Plasmode simulation for the evaluation of causal inference methods in homophilous social networks
Vanessa McNealis, Erica E. M. Moodie, Nema Dean
Typical simulation approaches for evaluating the performance of statistical methods on populations embedded in social networks may fail to capture important features of real-world…

Joint mixed-effects models for causal inference in clustered network-based observational studies
Vanessa McNealis, Erica E. M. Moodie, Nema Dean
Causal inference on populations embedded in social networks poses technical challenges, since the typical no interference assumption frequently does not hold. Existing methods deve…
