R Code and References

  • Curtis Kephart's Lessons on R
  • A great intro for newcomers to R.
  • R Functions
  • Balance.Table -- Creates a balance table (or "comparison of means" table) to ensure balance between treatment and control groups.
  • RDbalance.table -- Create a balance table with regression discontinuity estimates across the threshold
  • Regout -- Easier clustering of standard errors with Stargazer output.
  • IV.Estimate -- Easily calculate standard errors of the IV estimates in a two-staged least squares context.
  • RDplotr -- Create many regression discontinuity plots and save them.
  • A primer on dplyr and tidyr
  • These packages are my preferred method for data manipulation in R, part of the tidyverse.
