Installation
ssc install did_imputation, replace
Take a look at the help file:
help did_imputation
Test the command
Please make sure that you generate the data using the script given here
Let’s try the basic did_imputation command with 10 leads and lags:
did_imputation Y i t first_treat, horizons(0/10) pretrend(10) minn(0)
which gives us:
Number of obs = 1,438

In order to plot the estimates we can use the event_plot (ssc install event_plot, replace) command as follows:
event_plot, default_look graph_opt(xtitle("Periods since the event") ytitle("Average effect") ///
title("did_imputation") xlabel(-10(1)10)) stub_lag(tau#) stub_lead(pre#) together
And we get:
