Primary LanguageStataMIT LicenseMIT

Sample replication package

This repository includes a short paper and its accompanying replication code. Download this repository by clicking on the green "Clone or download" button above, or click here. The folder analysis/ replicates the figures and tables for the manuscript located in the folder paper/.

The main analysis is written in Stata, but it also uses rscript to call a subroutine written in R. If you don't want to install R, set global DisableR = 1 in run.do. More information is available in the README.

This sample replication package provides:

  1. Supporting materials for an accompanying Stata coding guide
  2. Example Stata code that automates the creation of tables and figures for a manuscript
  3. An example of a cross-platform, standalone replication package that is compliant with the AEA's data and code availability policy
  4. A template LaTeX manuscript

Notes

The paper/ folder is included for pedagogical purposes: it shows how to incorporate the tables and figures produced by the analysis into a LaTeX manuscript.
