摘要翻译:
超额订阅的治疗通常使用随机等候名单分配。申请人随机排名,待遇待遇根据排名进行,直到所有座位都填满。为了估计因果关系,研究人员经常比较得到和没有得到offer的申请人。我们发现这两组在统计上没有可比性。因此,该比较所产生的估计量是不一致的。我们提出了一个新的估计量,并证明了它是一致的。最后,我们回顾了一个应用,我们证明了使用我们的估计量可以导致与使用常用估计量的结果有很大不同的结果。

英文摘要:
Oversubscribed treatments are often allocated using randomized waiting lists. Applicants are ranked randomly, and treatment offers are made following that ranking until all seats are filled. To estimate causal effects, researchers often compare applicants getting and not getting an offer. We show that those two groups are not statistically comparable. Therefore, the estimator arising from that comparison is inconsistent. We propose a new estimator, and show that it is consistent. Finally, we revisit an application, and we show that using our estimator can lead to sizably different results from those obtained using the commonly used estimator.
