fit_first_stage_raw: Estimate First Stage

In evanjflack/polypharmacy: Behavioral Hazard and Patient Decision Making

Description

Estimate the first stage (y ~ first_mo), where y is a binary variable (e.g. statin fill indiator) in gross terms

Usage

fit_first_stage_raw(
  DT,
  y,
  months = "1_12",
  x_main = "first_mo",
  x_int = NULL,
  keep_vars,
  cont_risk_var = NULL,
  n_quant = 5,
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

DT	a data.table
y	character vector, name of response variable(s) without months suffix
months	character vector (default = "1_12"), months of y variable to estimate. Should be in the form "YEAR_MONTH" where year is between 1 and 2 and month is between 1 and 12.
x_main	character (default = "first_mo"), name of instrument
x_int	character vector, names of variables to interact instrument with
keep_vars	character vector, column names for the binary keep variables
cont_risk_var	character (default = NULL), name of the continuous predicted risk variable
n_quant	integer (default = 5), number of quntiles to break predicted risk in to. High risk is defined as being in the top quantile.
quiet	logical (default = FALSE), if TRUE then does not print progress

Value

a data.table of the first stage estimates (and their standard errors)
