Re: st: Methods for selection bias
If you are interested in selection bias, you cannot avoid reading Heckman:
Heckman, J. (1979) `Sample selection bias as a
specification error', Econometrica, vol. 47, 1.
Heckman, J. (1990) `Varieties of selection bias',
The American Economic Review, vol. 80, 2.
Carneiro, Hansen and Heckman (2003), `Estimating...', International
Economic Review, May, Vol. 44, No.2

I would consider -permute- for permutation tests based on Monte Carlo
simulations. What assumptions can you make, e.g., do you have
independent samples (i.e. unmatched data)?

The "non-randomised data" refers to both the sample and the treatment
assignment.
