Estimating dynamic treatment effects in event studies with heterogeneous treatment effects

Liyang Sun et al.

Summary: In settings with variation in treatment timing across units, coefficient on a given lead or lag can be contaminated by effects from other periods in two-way fixed effects regressions, and apparent pretrends can arise solely from treatment effects heterogeneity. An alternative estimator free of contamination is proposed, and the relative shortcomings of two-way fixed effects regressions with leads and lags are illustrated through an empirical application.

Change in clinical practice variations for antibiotic prescriptions across different pediatric clinics: A Japan's nationwide observational study

Yusuke Okubo et al.

Summary: This study examined the changing trends of antibiotic prescription patterns in different clinics in Japan from 2013 to 2018, and found varied impacts of the National Action Plan on different clinics. One quarter of the clinics did not improve antibiotic prescription patterns even after the introduction of the Action Plan.

Difference-in-differences with variation in treatment timing

Andrew Goodman-Bacon

Summary: The paper explores the relationship between the two-way fixed effects estimator and all possible two-group/two-period DD estimators, showing that it is a weighted average. A causal interpretation of two-way fixed effects DD estimates requires meeting the parallel trends assumption and constant treatment effects over time.
