This new body of work on using proxy measures for confounding control should be seen in the context of the earlier literature on #measurementerror in (de)confounders and replicate measurements such as:

Sample size recommendations for studies on reliability and measurement error: an online application based on simulation studies - Health Services and Outcomes Research Methodology
Simulation studies were performed to investigate for which conditions of sample size of patients (n) and number of repeated measurements (k) (e.g., raters) the optimal (i.e., balance between precise a...

7. Further, we assessed sensitivity to #MeasurementError of the exposure and #Exogeneity (unmeasured confounding) by excluding those states w/ more generous #Medicaid income eligibility (>100% of #FPL) prior to #Medicaid expansion under the #ACA: AZ, CA, DE, DC, HI, NY, & VT...

random with respect to the characteristics of the subjects. Training simpler supervised models on high-quality human annotations with flexible coding leads to less #measurementError and bias than #LLM annotations"

"Careless respondents" aka straight-liners etc can cause spurious effects. This makes this measurement quality research worthwile beyond survey methodology #surveymethods #surveymethodology #measurementerror journals.sagepub.com/doi/epub/10....

When drafted into NHL, he was pick #14

Later took Canadiens to 6 (!) Stanley Cups as goalie.

Academics, especially those adjudicating awards, a reminder about #MeasurementError & difficulty in predicting "stars" early in a career.
Canadian icon Ken Dryden has passed away

As a child he influenced me in an usual way

I was astounded that an NHL star had a law degree.

(even more amazing, he took a break from NHL to article and get law degree!)

Really stressed, to me, the importance of #education
