Usage

misterigauss(Z = Z, A = A, Y = Y)

Arguments

Z

an IV scalar variable

A

the exposure variable

Y

the continuous outcome variable

Value

a list object that contains causal effect estimates and standard errors.

MR MiSTERI for a continous outcome with Gaussian mixture errors.

Description

This function estimates the causal effect of treatment on the treated (ETT) for a continous outcome with error terms that follow Gaussian mixture distributions.

Usage

misterigaussmix(Z, A, Y, maxiter = 100, tol = 0.001)

Arguments

Z

an IV scalar variable

A

the exposure variable

Y

the continuous outcome variable

Value

a list object that contains causal effect estimates and standard errors.

MR MiSTERI with many weak invalid IVs

Description

misterimawii combines many weak invalid IVs to reduce weak IV bias.

Usage

misterimawii(Z, A, Y)

Arguments

Z

an IV matrix with columns representing IVs

A

the exposure variable

Y

the continuous outcome variable

Value

a list object that contains causal effect estimates and standard errors.
