STAD81H3: Causal Inference

Correlation does not imply causation. Then, how can we make causal claims? To answer this question, this course introduces theoretical foundations and modern statistical and graphical tools for making causal inference. Topics include potential outcomes and counterfactuals, measures of treatment effects, causal graphical models, confounding adjustment, instrumental variables, principal stratification, mediation and interference.
