Hi All,
April 6, 2009, 2pm is the due date for your replication of another student
groups' replication. You should email me and Patrick as well as all of the
members of the student group whose work you replicated a *pdf* memo pointing
out ways to make their paper and analysis better. You will be evaluated
based on how helpful, not how destructive, you are.
Readings for this week are: (1) King, Gary and Langche Zeng. ?The Dangers of
Extreme Counterfactuals,? Political Analysis, 14, 2, (2007): 131-159. (2)
Daniel Ho, Kosuke Imai, Gary King, and Elizabeth Stuart.?Matching as
Nonparametric Preprocessing for Reducing Model Dependence in Parametric
Causal Inference,? Political Analysis, 15 (2007): 199-236.
My office hours this Thursday will only be from 2 till 3 pm.
Thanks,
Miya Woolfalk
