Notes

Installation

Requires Stata v17 or higher. Take a look at the help file:

help hdidregress

Test the command

Please make sure that you generate the shared setup data using the setup block given here.

hdidregress aipw (Y) (D), group(id) time(t)

The paired dofile also demonstrates additional estimators and decomposition checks:

bacondecomp Y D
bacondecomp Y D, ddetail

hdidregress twfe (Y) (D), group(id) time(t)
hdidregress aipw (Y) (D), group(id) time(t)
hdidregress ipw (Y) (D), group(id) time(t)
hdidregress ra (Y) (D), group(id) time(t)

If you want to mirror the dofile workflow exactly, run the command block above before plotting so the comparison across estimators is reproducible from a single script.

Which gives us this output (truncated for visibility):

The command also has a built in graph option:

estat atetplot, sci

The command’s built-in graph option gives us:

estat aggregation, dynamic(-10(1)10) graph
