Ringkasan	The machine learning-augmented placebo test is a causal-inference validation technique that uses flexible ML estimators — such as causal forests, LASSO, or double/debiased ML — to conduct falsification checks on an identification strategy. By replacing real treatment assignments with placebo (fake) assignments and verifying that the estimated effect collapses to zero, researchers confirm that their causal findings are not artefacts of model misspecification or confounding.	Instrumental variables (IV) is an econometric method to estimate causal effects when treatment or exposure is not randomly assigned and confounding is severe or unmeasured. IV relies on a third variable (instrument) that influences treatment but does not directly affect the outcome, allowing researchers to isolate the causal effect from the noise of confounding. Developed extensively in econometrics (Angrist & Pischke, 1990s–2000s), IV methods are increasingly used in health economics and health services research to leverage natural experiments and policy changes.
