The author presents a comprehensive toolbox for designing rigorous and effective ex-post program evaluation using the statistical software package Stata. For each method, a statistical presentation is developed, followed by a practical estimation of the treatment effects. By using both real and simulated data, readers will become familiar with evaluation techniques, such as regression-adjustment, matching, difference-in-differences, instrumental-variables and regression-discontinuity-design, and are given practical guidelines for selecting and applying suitable methods for specific policy contexts.Advanced Studies in Theoretical and Applied Econometrics,2214-7977 ;49EconometricsStatisticsInternational economic relationsEconomic policyEconometricsStatistics in Business, Management, Economics, Finance, InsuranceInternational Political Economy’Economic PolicyEconometrics.Statistics.International economic relations.Economic policy.Econometrics.Statistics in Business, Management, Economics, Finance, Insurance.International Political Economy’.Economic Policy.361.0068Cerulli Giovanniauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut790241MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298468503321Econometric evaluation of socio-economic programs1764140UNINA
