1- Estimated Rate:
- Target population: Mean over every among U.S. adults
- Unit-specific quantity (): Whether each is employed
2- Causal question: How would the probability of employment differ if we enrolled a randomly chosen individual in job training or not? \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n \left( Y_{i}(1) - Y_{i}(0) ight)
- Target population: Mean over every among U.S. adults
- Unit-specific quantity: Whether each is employed
- : Employment if enrolled in job training
