This $350,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support the development of new theory and methods for assessing the sensitivity of causal inferences to violations of underlying assumptions in quasi-experimental research designs. The research project aims to create a comprehensive suite of sensitivity analysis tools for popular causal inference techniques such as instrumental variables, difference-in-differences, and regression discontinuity designs. The investigators will bound the bias due to violations of common assumptions in these methods and develop easily interpretable sensitivity statistics to communicate the robustness of research results. The project will also train and mentor graduate and undergraduate students, and disseminate the new methods through academic courses, practitioner workshops, and open-source software. The award period runs from August 2024 through July 2027.
