In philosophy of science, a causal model (or structural causal model) is a conceptual model that describes the causal mechanisms of a system. Causal models can improve study designs by providing clear rules for deciding which independent variables need to be included/controlled for.

在科学哲学中，因果模型(或结构因果模型)是描述系统因果机制的概念模型。因果模型可以通过提供清晰的规则来决定哪些自变量需要包括/控制，从而改进研究设计。

They can allow some questions to be answered from existing observational data without the need for an interventional study such as a randomized controlled trial. Some interventional studies are inappropriate for ethical or practical reasons, meaning that without a causal model, some hypotheses cannot be tested.

它们可以从现有的观察数据中回答一些问题，而无需进行随机对照试验似的干预性研究。一些干预性研究由于伦理或实践的原因是不合适的，这意味着如果没有一个因果模型，一些假设无法被检验。
