These issues include threats to internal and external validity, using experimental data to examine treatment effect heterogeneity and using experimental data to learn about the performance of non-experimental evaluation methods.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bio:<\/strong> Jeffrey Smith is Professor of Economics and Public Policy at the University of Michigan. He received his Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Chicago in 1996. From 1994 to 2001 he was on the faculty at the University of Western Ontario and from 2001 to 2005 he was on the faculty at the University of Maryland. His research centers on experimental and non-experimental methods for the evaluation of interventions, with particular application to social and educational programs. He has also written papers examining the labor market effects of university quality and the use of statistical treatment rules to assign persons to government programs.
