Learn Difference-in-Differences (DiD) in Stata using a case study of an after-school tutoring program. Covers the 2x2 design, TWFE regression, event studies, and parallel trends testing based on Corral and Yang (2024).
Identify latent group structures in panel data using the Classifier-LASSO method (Su, Shi, Phillips 2016), revealing that the pooled democracy-growth effect of +1.055 masks a +2.151 effect in 57 countries and a -0.936 effect in 41 countries.
Manual demeaning vs two-way fixed effects --- showing that TWFE is just OLS on demeaned data through the Frisch-Waugh-Lovell theorem, with a hands-on proof using a Barro convergence panel of 150 countries.
Comparing standard error estimators in panel data regressions using Python and linearmodels --- from conventional to clustered, Driscoll-Kraay, and fixed effects
Dynamic panel Bayesian Model Averaging with the Bayesian Dynamic Systems Modeling (BDSM) R package, applied to cross-country economic growth determinants --- handling reverse causality through lagged dependent variables, fixed effects, and weak exogeneity.
A hands-on guide to spatial panel data modeling using the SDPDmod package in R --- from Bayesian model comparison through static and dynamic SAR/SDM estimation with Lee-Yu bias correction to direct, indirect, and total effect decomposition --- applied to cigarette demand across 46 US states (1963--1992).
Estimate spatial dynamic panel models with unobserved common factors using the spxtivdfreg package in Stata --- an IV approach that handles spatial lags, temporal persistence, endogenous regressors, and latent factors simultaneously
A guide to Difference-in-Differences with staggered treatment --- from TWFE pitfalls through Callaway-Sant'Anna group-time ATTs, doubly robust estimation, and HonestDiD sensitivity analysis --- applied to minimum wage effects on teen employment.
Evaluate the causal effect of a cash transfer program on household consumption using regression adjustment, inverse probability weighting, doubly robust, and difference-in-differences methods in Stata
Estimating regression models with high-dimensional fixed effects using PyFixest, from simple OLS through two-way FE, instrumental variables, panel data, and event studies
