cre-identification

separate

Use when the empirical identification strategy is the bottleneck for a 《中国农村经济》 manuscript — micro-household / village-level quasi-experimental designs (DID, IV, RDD, PSM). Stress-tests the design and the rural-specific endogeneity before drafting tables.

When to use

• micro-household / village-level quasi-experimental designs
• DID, IV, RDD, PSM
• rural-specific endogeneity
• staggered DID
• instrumental variables
• regression discontinuity
• propensity score matching
• structural estimation

When not to use

• pure descriptive statistics + OLS
• self-selected behavior without endogeneity treatment
• TWFE + staggered without heterogeneity discussion
• PSM without unobservable selectivity discussion
• IV without exclusion argument
• RDD without density test
