Consistent for the Wrong Estimand: A Declare-Diagnose-Reconcile Framework for Estimand-Estimator Mismatch in Modern Causal Inference

This upload contains the full manuscript PDF of "Consistent for the Wrong Estimand: A Declare-Diagnose-Reconcile Framework for Estimand-Estimator Mismatch in Modern Causal Inference". The paper develops a three-step inferential discipline (Declare, Diagnose, Reconcile) for handling estimand-estimator mismatch in modern causal inference and illustrates the framework across multiple applied methods.
