getObs: Calculate summary statistics of observables

In fditraglia/binivdoctr:

Description

This function calculates summary statistics for later use in the partial identification exercise for a binary, mis-measured, endogenous regressor based on a binary instrument that may itsef be endogenous.

Usage

getObs(y_name, T_name, z_name, controls = NULL, data)

Arguments

y_name	Name of the outcome variable.
T_name	Name of the potentially endogenous and mis-measured binary treatment variable.
z_name	Name of the potentially endogenous binary instrument.
controls	Vector of names of exogenous control regressors.
data	Name of dataframe whose columns contain the data for the outcome, regressor, instrument, and controls.

Value

A list of summary statistics: probabilities, conditional means and variances, etc., in notation corresponding to the paper.

Examples

AngristControls <- c("age", "svy", "sex2", "phone", "hsvisit",
                     "d1995", "djamundi", "dmonth1", "dmonth2",
                     "dmonth3", "dmonth4", "dmonth5", "dmonth6", "dmonth7",
                     "dmonth8", "dmonth9", "dmonth10", "dmonth11",
                     "strata1", "strata2", "strata3", "strata4", "strata5")
AngristY <- "totalRepeats"
AngristT <- "usesch"
AngristZ <- "vouch0"
getObs(AngristY, AngristT, AngristZ, AngristControls, angrist)
