        AB  - Often, the moment of a treatment and the moment at which the outcome of interest occurs
are realizations of stochastic processes with dependent unobserved determinants. Notably,
both treatment and outcome are characterized by the moment they occur. In this paper, we
compare different methods of inference of the treatment effect. We argue that the timing of
the treatment relative to the outcome conveys useful information on the treatment effect,
which is discarded in binary treatment frameworks.
