Gauss Code to Read and Analyze Raw Data
! Green and Krasno (1988) AJPS: CAMPAIGN $ IN 1978 HOUSE ELECTIONS ! Model replicates top and bottom panels of Table 6. ! The first analysis reproduces the OLS estimates for the top ! panel (all cases, linear independent variables, no interactions. ! The second analysis generates 2sls estimates for this model. ! Analysis three runs OLS on the log of challenger spending, ! including interactions between challenger spending, challenger ! quality, and challenger party strength. ! Analysis four applies 2sls to the nonlinear/interaction model. ! Note problem with reported 2sls standard errors, which are ! slightly smaller than standard errors estimated here. Green ! generated the estimates using LS in two sequential regressions ! and used the Hout (_Soc. Methods and Research_) method for ! correcting standard errors, but only for the endogenous regressor ! "ie". Consequently, the SE's for incumbent expenditures are ! right, but the rest are a bit off. Luckily, nothing of substance ! was affected by these misestimates. ! !Green, Donald Philip and Jonathan S.
