A question for #StatsTwitter
We are using propensity score matching to estimate a treatment effect and 95% CI. Because of small N, we are using bootstrapping. Why is my treatment effect always bigger when I use bootstrapping versus not?

Hey #statstwitter , can you help me figure out what's up with this weird smoothing procedure?
Is this LOESS?
My statistical test assumes that I randomize.
I indeed randomize.
Do I need to do a balance test to check whether the randomization “worked”?

I find it really awkward to display binary variables in summary statistics tables like they’re continuous variables (min = 0, max = 1, etc). Does anyone have a better approach for summarizing/visualizing your data’s binary variables?

I am teaching model building/ variable selection using DAGs in my regression course.
I'd love to provide a few different real-world examples of the consequence of conditioning on a collider. Does anyone have a favorite teaching example? #epitwitter #statstwitter
When I was an undergrad at UChicago, I worked for the stat department as a consultant, mostly helping masters students with limited quant knowledge to finish their theses. During the first consult the student asked me, “Can you help me make my p-values <0.05?”
