Metodi e modelli per l’inferenza causale
Firenze, 18 – 21 maggio 2010
Dipartimento di Statistica “G. Parenti”
Università di Firenze
Il corso introduce agli strumenti statistici necessari per la definizione, l’identificazione e la stima di effetti causali. La necessità di valutare relazioni causali emerge in molti ambiti. Ad esempio, la valutazione di politiche, l’analisi dei rendimenti dell’istruzione, l’analisi dell’efficacia di nuove terapie presuppongono la stima di effetti causali.
Seguendo l’approccio dei risultati potenziali, verranno presentati i metodi e discusse le assunzioni necessarie per l’analisi di dati sperimentali e osservazionali.
Gli argomenti saranno trattati sia da un punto di vista teorico che applicativo, con esempi empirici in ambito economico e biomedico. Le applicazioni verranno svolte nel Laboratorio di Statistica utilizzando i software STATA e R.
La trattazione presuppone conoscenze di base di inferenza statistica e regressione lineare.
Il corso è rivolto ai Soci SIS, ricercatori, dottorandi e funzionari di enti pubblici e privati interessati agli aspetti teorici ed applicativi dell’inferenza causale.
