Abstract
In this work we propose a different surgical modified model for the construction of counterfactual variables under non parametric structural equation models. This approach allows the simultaneous representation of counterfactual responses and observed treatment assignment, at least when the intervention is done in one node. Using the new proposal, the d-separation criterion is used verify conditions related with ignorability or conditional ignorability and a new proof of the back door theorem is provided under this framework.
