Exploring Preferences for ‘Blinding’ One’s Own Judgment
… people's degree of preference for "blinding" in decision-making: purposefully restricting the information one sees in order to try to form a more accurate evaluation. For example, when grading her students’ papers, a professor might choose to "blind" herself to students’ names by anonymizing …

An Item Response Theory Approach to Causal Inference in the Presence of a Pre-intervention Assessment
… based on Item Response Theory (IRT) to combat bias that occurs when existing causal inference methods are used under certain scenarios. When a pre-test is administered, prior to a treatment decision, bias can occur in causal inferences about the decision's effect on the outcome. This new IRT …
