EXTENDED MODELS OF TREATMENT EFFECTS
Stata 14 adds to its existing models of treatment effects by introducing new command
stteffects which, like the existing
teffects allows the users to estimate average treatment effects (ATEs), average treatment effects on the treated (ATETs), and potential-outcome means (POMs) but also allows users to model a combination of the outcome, treatment assignment and censoring. Further,
stteffects also offers the options of estimating treatment effects by inverse probability weighting (IPW) through
stteffects ipw, different regression-adjustment methods through
stteffects ra through
stteffects wra and
stteffects ipwra allows a choice between two doubly robust estimators.
Stata 14 allows users to deal with endogenous treatments where the treatment assignment is correlated with the outcome through the new command
eteffects which estimates ATEs, ATETs and POMs for continuous, count and binary outcomes.
