An accessible, contemporary introduction to the methods for
determining cause and effect in the social sciences "Causation
versus correlation has been the basis of arguments-economic and
otherwise-since the beginning of time. Causal Inference: The
Mixtape uses legit real-world examples that I found genuinely
thought-provoking. It's rare that a book prompts readers to expand
their outlook; this one did for me."-Marvin Young (Young MC) Causal
inference encompasses the tools that allow social scientists to
determine what causes what. In a messy world, causal inference is
what helps establish the causes and effects of the actions being
studied-for example, the impact (or lack thereof) of increases in
the minimum wage on employment, the effects of early childhood
education on incarceration later in life, or the influence on
economic growth of introducing malaria nets in developing regions.
Scott Cunningham introduces students and practitioners to the
methods necessary to arrive at meaningful answers to the questions
of causation, using a range of modeling techniques and coding
instructions for both the R and the Stata programming languages.
