Excuse: selection bias
Jeanne Brooks-Gunn, Greg J. Duncan, Pamela Kato Klebanov, Naomi Sealand. 1993:358. Do Neighborhoods Influence Child and Adolescent Development? The American Journal of Sociology, Vol. 99, No. 2 (Sep., 1993), pp. 353-395.
"We are not very sanguine about the likelihood that standard adjust- ments for selection bias would liberate us from these problems. Identifi- cation of selection-bias adjustments requires convincing measures that affect neighborhood selection but not developmental outcomes. As do other authors of empirical work on neighborhood effects (Crane 1991; Case and Katz 1991; Hogan and Kitagawa 1985; Corcoran et al. 1992; Massey, Gross, and Eggers 1992) we leave the task of modeling selection bias on the agenda of important future research."
