localIGE

Computes local intergenerational elasticities

localIGE(formla, xformla = NULL, data, tvals, h = NULL, cl = 1)

Arguments

formla	a formula y ~ treatment
xformla	one sided formula for x variables to include, e.g. ~x1 + x2
data	the data.frame where y, t, and x are
tvals	a grid of values of treatment variable
h	bandwidth
cl	the number of clusters to use, default is 1

Value

lige

Examples

data(igm)
igm$hs=ifelse(igm$HEDUC=="HS",1,0)
igm$col=ifelse(igm$HEDUC=="COL",1,0)
formla=lcfincome~lfincome
xformla=~hs+col
tvals=seq(quantile(igm$lfincome,probs = 0.1),quantile(igm$lfincome,probs = 0.9),length.out = 10)
h=1.2
cl=1
data=igm
