Principal stratification with continuous treatments and continuous post-treatment variables
In causal inference studies, interest often lies in understanding the mechanisms through
which a treatment affects an outcome. One approach is principal stratification (PS), which …

A spatially varying distributed lag model with application to an air pollution and term low birth weight study
Distributed lag models have been used to identify critical pregnancy periods of exposure (ie
critical exposure windows) to air pollution in studies of pregnancy outcomes. However, much …
