Policy Evaluation Doubly Robust Estimation

Policy Evaluation Doubly Robust Estimation applies the doubly robust (DR) estimator to assess the causal effect of a public policy or programme. It combines a model of treatment assignment (propensity score) with a model of the outcome, and requires only one of the two models to be correctly specified to produce a consistent estimate of the average treatment effect, making it a resilient tool for programme evaluation.
