[Agency] AHRQ [Project Title] DOUBLY ROBUST ELIMINATION: BEST PRACTICES FOR COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS RESEARCH [Institution] UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL [Amount] $0 [Summary] The proposed research will systematically evaluate six key aspects of DR estimators: 1) quantify the degree to which DR estimation leads to bias reduction relative to standard methods, 2) evaluate estimated standard errors under a broad range of conditions, 3) determine the optimal covariate types for inclusion in the component models, 4) validate a new approach to variable and model-form selection, 5) develop and test strategies specific to DR estimation for the identification of non-uniform treatment effects, and 6) identify conditions under which DR methods perform worse than standard methods.
