The R qte
package implements many methods used,
especially in economics, to estimate quantile treatment effects. These
include the case where treatment is randomly assigned, under selection
on observables, under a Difference in Differences Assumtpion.
The package is available on CRAN and can be loaded as follows
library(qte)
The following example shows how to use the ci.qte
method
in the qte
package using data about an experimental job
training program.
data(lalonde)
<- ci.qte(re78 ~ treat,
jt.cia xformla=~age + education + black + hispanic + married + nodegree,
data=lalonde.psid,
probs=seq(0.05,0.95,0.05), se=T)
summary(jt.cia)
