Stata and R code to reproduce the main results in the paper.
To reproduce the results from the main paper and the Supplementary Information, download the full repository from openICPSR, open the Corona.Rproj R Project and run the 00_master.R script. Working installations of Stata and R are required.
The various R and Stata scripts are described below.
| script name | description |
|---|---|
000_master.R |
Calls all the scripts sequentially. Automatically searches for Stata console and executes the Stata .do files from R. |
00_prep.R |
Installs the required R packages using the information in the renv.lock file. |
01_fts.R |
Utils file. |
10_safeGraphSDCounty.R |
Aggregates the raw SafeGraph data to the county-day level. Not called by the master script as the raw data is proprietary and thus not shared. |
11_compileDataCounty.R |
Compiles the main dataset for analysis from the aggregated SafeGraph data and additional data sources |
20_analysis.R |
Produces the outputs of the analysis done in R and outputs figures to /results/figs/ |
Main_County.do |
Estimates the main county-level event study and pooled differences-in-differences results and outputs figures to /results/figs/ and tables to /results/tabs/ |
Descriptives_Main_County.do |
Produces the main descriptive results and outputs figures to /results/figs/ and tables to /results/tabs/ |
Construct_validity.do |
Produces the main construct validity results and outputs figures to /results/figs/ and tables to /results/tabs/ |
