Und zwar ausgerechnet bei einer fingierten Razzia im Wohnzimmer ihres eigenen Hauses! Und alles begann doch nur damit, dass Rebecca sich aus Freundschaft bereit erklärt, bei einer Feier im Bordell am Klavier auszuhelfen ...

Causal Inference Made Easy: A Practical Guide to Cause and Effect in Statistics is a comprehensive resource designed to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and practical application of causal inference. This book offers an accessible yet in-depth exploration of the methods and tools that empower researchers, data scientists, policymakers, and practitioners to uncover and validate cause-and-effect relationships in a wide array of disciplines. Drawing from diverse fields such as statistics, econometrics, computer science, epidemiology, and social sciences, the book provides a solid foundation in both classical and modern approaches to causal analysis. Readers are guided through fundamental concepts-from understanding counterfactuals and potential outcomes to constructing Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) and applying Structural Causal Models (SCMs)-before delving into advanced topics such as instrumental variables, regression discontinuity designs, synthetic controls, and causal machine learning. Key features of the book include: Foundational Principles and Frameworks: The early chapters introduce the essential terminology and core concepts of causal inference, establishing a base for understanding how treatments and outcomes are linked within complex systems. Methodological Diversity: With dedicated sections on randomized controlled trials, observational study techniques (such as propensity score matching and difference-in-differences), quasi-experimental designs, and advanced machine learning methods (including double machine learning and causal forests), the book equips readers with multiple strategies to address causal questions in both experimental and non-experimental settings. Practical Applications and Case Studies: Real-world examples from healthcare, epidemiology, economics, finance, and social sciences illustrate how causal inference drives evidence-based decision-making and policy development, guiding the reader through the challenges and triumphs of applying these methods in practice. Tools, Reproducibility, and Ethical Considerations: Chapters on computational tools in R, Python, Stata, and other platforms highlight the importance of reproducible research environments, while discussions on data sharing, ethical principles, and transparency ensure that causal studies are conducted responsibly. Future Directions and Interdisciplinary Insights: The final sections provide a forward-looking perspective on emerging trends, opportunities, and challenges in causal inference. By embracing innovations from machine learning, big data, and dynamic modeling, the book lays out a roadmap for future research while integrating interdisciplinary perspectives that enrich causal analysis. Whether you are a student embarking on your first causal study, a researcher aiming to advance your methodological toolkit, or a practitioner seeking to implement robust, ethical causal analyses, Causal Inference Made Easy offers practical guidance, detailed case studies, and advanced techniques to help you navigate the complexities of establishing cause and effect.

"Science journals help students make sense of their learning experiences. They also provide teachers with insights into students'' science and literary skills."--back cover.

Vision is the window to learning. Vision problems can cause difficulties in the classroom that can lead to learning and emotional troubles for the child and a high cost to society. Diagnosing and treating visual disorders as early as possible is critical. Educators and parents need to be informed of the importance of proper visual skills for learning as well as the ways to detect visual problems. When vision problems are found, school personnel, parents, and children should seek help from eye care professionals in the community. Unfortunately, some patients do not have the financial means for treatment or do not know where to turn when vision problems are suspected. In these cases, it would be beneficial to have a source that lists financial assistance and resources that can be sought through federal, state, or local programs. This project had a three-part emphasis: (1) surveyed local educators to determine current knowledge and attitudes of vision problems and inquiry into known resources for financial assistance for vision exams; (2) researched local and regional resources (eye care professionals and financial assistance) available to educators; (3) designed a vision resource handout, based on survey responses, for the local schools. The handout was distributed to all schools that participated in the survey. This project had the goal of educating elementary school teachers about learning-disabled children who may actually be struggling with vision problems. Vision is crucial in the learning process, but little is done to help educators know what to look for or where to turn if they are suspicious of visual disorders.
