Overview

Data don’t speak for themselves: Correct conclusions can only be drawn against the background of its history, the so-called data-generating process. With the help of the elements of causal inference, we can explain seemingly paradoxical patterns and biases in our data. In this introductory course, the basics of causal inference are explained with the help of causal diagrams.
