Cornell University was awarded a $581,698 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Social and Economic Science under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The grant will support research to develop innovative statistical decision theory methods for policy evaluation. Specifically, Cornell researchers will use three projects to create new estimation and inference methods connecting statistical decision theory to economics and econometrics. The first project involves a binary policy choice problem where payoff parameters are partially identified, resulting in a novel decision rule. The second project examines policy effects uncertainty with randomized controlled trials having imperfect compliance. Researchers will interpret usual instrumental variables estimators irrespective of causal interpretations and apply the results to experimental and observational policy data. The grant aims to improve policy design and economic performance by making more effective use of available policy evaluation data through these new statistical decision methods and tools.
