gabrielmoreira Performing Causal Analysis
Executes causal analysis on existing data. This skill owns model setup, treatment-effect estimation, counterfactual comparison, robustness checks, and interpretation of fitted causal results.
It does not own the earlier question of which experiment or quasi-experiment should be designed before analysis begins.
Workflow
- Load Data: Ensure data is in a Pandas DataFrame.
- Initialize Experiment: Use the appropriate class (see References).
- Fit & Model: Models are fitted automatically upon initialization if arguments are provided.
- Analyze Results: Use
summary(),print_coefficients(), andplot().
Core Methods
experiment.summary(): Prints model summary and main results.experiment.plot(): Visualizes observed vs. counterfactual.experiment.print_coefficients(): Shows model coefficients.
