Data from "Government Transfers and Political Support" for Density Tests
Description
The gov_transfers_density data contains data from Manacorda, Miguel, and Vigorito (2011) on government transfer program that was administered based on an income cutoff. As opposed to the gov_transfers data set, this data set only contains income information, but has a wider range of it, for use with density discontinuity tests.
Usage
gov_transfers_density
Format
A data frame with 52549 rows and 1 variable:
- Income_Centered
Income measure, centered around program cutoff (negative value = eligible)
Details
This data is used in the Regression Discontinuity chapter of The Effect.
