Microeconomic research is not only about identifying statistical relationships, but also about uncovering the true causal links behind them. This book provides a comprehensive and practical guide for anyone seeking to conduct reliable causal analysis in this field.

Bir Mikroekonomistin El Kitabı, written by Dr. Mustafa Özer, is designed for a wide audience interested in causal analysis methods in microeconomics. It speaks in a clear and accessible language not only to academics or those with advanced training in economics, but also to anyone who enjoys working with data and is eager to learn about causal inference and econometric analysis.

The book covers fundamental concepts such as the counterfactual approach and the distinction between correlation and causation, and offers an in-depth discussion of widely used methods in modern microeconomics. These include instrumental variables (IV), difference-in-differences (DiD), propensity score matching (PSM), regression discontinuity design (RDD), natural experiments, and the synthetic control method (SCM). All methods are explained with practical examples drawn from real-world policy and market analyses, using Stata software for hands-on application.

Filling an important gap in Turkish literature, this book combines theoretical rigor with a practical focus, making it an essential resource for anyone working on microeconomics and causal analysis.
