placeboci: Estimate placebo-based confidence intervals.

In carlbona/idd: Incidence difference-in-differences methods with automatic control selection

Description

placeboci takes the results from a set of placebo studies obtained using iddplacebo and estimates non-parametric placebo-based confidence intervals for a selected alpha level.

Usage

placeboci(object, alpha = 0.05, mult = 100000)

Arguments

object	An R object containing the results from a set of placebo studies obtained using iddplacebo.
alpha	The significance level, defaults to 0.05 for 95 percent CI.
mult	Multiplier for the rate, defaults to 100000.

Value

The code prints the CI for the average post-intervention effect, and returns a data frame containing the time-varying CI. To be used with iddplacebo.ciplot or iddplacebo.pplot.

Examples

## Not run: 
data(simpanel)
placebo.out <- iddplacebo(eventvar="y",
             popvar="pop",
             idvar="age",
             timevar="time",
             postvar="post",
             treatvar="treat",
             data=simpanel,
             iter=50)
ci.out <- placeboci(placebo.out, alpha=0.05)
