Tables/figures - Additional Figures for "Estimating the Effects of a Time Limited Earnings Subsidy for Welfare-Leavers"
David Card, Dean R. Hyslop
Description:
1. Extra-figureA shows the SSP impacts (treatment minus control group means) for IA for all individuals and for 2 subgroups: those with less than a high school education, and those with a high school education or higher. This is created by treat_byed.sas reading from wide54r data set
2. Extra-figureB shows the simulated SSP impacts from the normal heterogeneity model (column 4 of Table 6) for two "types": people with a random effect equal to the 20th percentile of the heterogeneity distribution (which is N(0, 1.18)); and people with a random effect equal to the 80th percentile of the heterogeneity distribution. See sim8020.sas
3. Extra-figureC shows the actual hazard rate into SSP eligibility, and the predicted rate from the the normal heterogeneity model (column 4 of Table 6). See extra-figc.xls
