The preceding discussion of causal effects skipped over two further assumptions that play a subtle but important role in experimental analysis. The first is the idea of an exclusion restriction. Embedded in Equation (1) is the idea that outcomes vary as a function of receiving the treatment per se. It is assumed that assignment to the treatment group only affects outcomes insofar as subjects receive the treatment. Part of the rationale for using blinded placebo groups in experimental design is the concern that subjects’ knowledge of their experimental assignment might affect their outcomes.

Noncompliance Sometimes only a subset of those who are assigned to the treatment group is actually treated, or a portion of the control group receives the treatment. When those who get the treatment differ from those who are assigned to receive it, an experiment confronts a problem of noncompliance.
