Finding Dynamic Treatment Effects Under Anticipation: The Effects of Spanking on Behaviour

Abstract: Summary.  The dynamic treatment effect literature considers multiple treatments administered over time, with some treatments affected by interim outcomes. But the literature overlooks the possibility of individuals acting in anticipation of future treatments. This lack of anticipation aspect may not matter in the drug–response relationships which motivated the literature. But human beings (or animals with some intelligence) do not just respond to current and past treatments, but also ‘reflect and anticipate’ f… Show more

“…Because 1 À g h θ 1 > 1, the sign of g à y depends on the sign of g h θ 2 + g y that consists of the direct effect g y of y 2 on y 1 and the 'indirect effect' g h θ 2 < 0 through the improved health; see Huang and Lee (2010) and Lee and Huang (2012) for this type of decomposition of a total effect into the direct and indirect effects. Because 1 À g h θ 1 > 1, the sign of g à y depends on the sign of g h θ 2 + g y that consists of the direct effect g y of y 2 on y 1 and the 'indirect effect' g h θ 2 < 0 through the improved health; see Huang and Lee (2010) and Lee and Huang (2012) for this type of decomposition of a total effect into the direct and indirect effects.…”

“…The interest is on the following effects of y 2 on y 1 : g y direct effect with h controlled ð Þ versus g à y g h θ 2 þg y 1Àg h θ 1 total effect with h substituted out ð Þ ;only g à y is identified by dropping h, although the desired effect might be g y -but one may 'declare' that g à y is the desired effect. Because 1 À g h θ 1 > 1, the sign of g à y depends on the sign of g h θ 2 + g y that consists of the direct effect g y of y 2 on y 1 and the 'indirect effect' g h θ 2 < 0 through the improved health; see Huang and Lee (2010) and Lee and Huang (2012) for this type of decomposition of a total effect into the direct and indirect effects. Because g h θ 2 < 0, g y < 0 implies g h θ 2 + g y < 0; g y > 0, however, makes the sign of g h θ 2 + g y ambiguous.…”
