A hands-on guide to spatial panel data modeling using the SDPDmod package in R --- from Bayesian model comparison through static and dynamic SAR/SDM estimation with Lee-Yu bias correction to direct, indirect, and total effect decomposition --- applied to cigarette demand across 46 US states (1963--1992).
A hands-on guide to the fwlplot package in R --- from understanding the Frisch-Waugh-Lovell theorem through simulated confounding to visualizing fixed effects in real panel data --- showing what "controlling for" looks like as a scatter plot.
A guide to Difference-in-Differences with staggered treatment --- from TWFE pitfalls through Callaway-Sant'Anna group-time ATTs, doubly robust estimation, and HonestDiD sensitivity analysis --- applied to minimum wage effects on teen employment.
Three principled approaches to variable selection---BMA, LASSO, and WALS---applied to synthetic cross-country CO2 emissions data with known ground truth, demonstrating methodological triangulation for robust inference.
The book provides a succinct review of the recent club convergence literature, a comparative view of developed and developing countries, and a tutorial on how to implement the club convergence framework in Stata and R.
Theresa Graefe (Ulm University) has created a very nice RTutor that allows you to replicate the main results of a recent AEJ paper on the causal effects of a CO2 tax in Sweden using the syntetic control method.
