In experiment: R Package for Designing and Analyzing Randomized Experiments

Randomization-based method for the complier average direct effect and the complier average spillover effect

Description

This function computes the point estimates and variance estimates of the complier average direct effect (CADE) and the complier average spillover effect (CASE). The estimators calculated using this function are either individual weighted or cluster-weighted. The point estimates and variances of ITT effects are also included.

Usage

CADErand(data, individual = 1)

Arguments

data	A data frame containing the relevant variables. The names for the variables should be: “Z” for the treatment assignment, “D” for the actual received treatment, “Y” for the outcome, “A” for the treatment assignment mechanism and “id” for the cluster ID. The variable for the cluster id should be a factor.
individual	A binary variable with TRUE for individual-weighted estimators and FALSE for cluster-weighted estimators.

Details

For the details of the method implemented by this function, see the references.
