Outcome regressions / Response Surface Modeling

(Degtiar and Rose 2023) “fit an outcome regression in study sample data to estimate conditional means, then obtain PATEs by marginalizing over (i.e., standardizing to) the target sample covariate distribution by predicting counterfactuals for the target sample If the target sample is not a simple random sample from the target population, this would be a weighted average using sampling weights (Kim et al., 2018).”
