@ccfang819.bsky.social my PhD student @unibonn.bsky.social and coauthor of the below 👇 paper is now also here at bsky. Follow recommendation 😉
Event-study plots in DiD are incredibly persuasive—but, honestly, not always honest.
Why?
If parallel trends or no anticipation fail, DiD estimates are biased. Testing against a zero-effect null then becomes misleading.

Nice thread on simultaneous confidence bands (SCBs) by @noahgreifer.bsky.social !
Not many papers explore varying critical values—despite cool uses like narrower or fairer bands.
Bit of shameless self-promo if you're into this 😉:

Just learned something new. You can buy spurious citations that will show up on Google Scholar -- and people do.

New working paper:
"Testing the Missing Completely at Random Assumption for Functional Data,"
joint work with Max Ofner*, S. Hörmann and D. Kraus.
As far as we know, it's the first paper on testing MCAR for functional data.
*Look out for this smart guy.

Grace Wahba, "the mother of smoothing splines," won the International Prize (aka the Nobel) in Statistics #stats for her representer theorem.

So well deserved! I guess, one could also give her the price again in two years for her work on Generalized Cross-Validation.
