Compact reference object for the Sequeira (2016) application reported in Table 4 of Sant'Anna and Xu (2026). It contains the paper-final Table 4 estimates, stationarity-test p-values, and local-polynomial nuisance fitted values and bandwidths from the original application output. The object lets users verify the published DR DiD rows without depending on the historical replication repository or rerunning the multi-hour cross-validation step.

Usage

sequeira_application_reference

Format

A list with five components:

description

tests

Data frame with the stationarity-test statistic, unclustered p-value, and clustered bootstrap p-value.

locpol

Local-polynomial nuisance fits, bandwidths, variables, seed, and bootstrap draw count used by the paper-final application run.

provenance

Source hashes and source-audit notes.

Source

Paper-final output files from the Sequeira application archived in the project Dropbox folder and mirrored in pedrohcgs/DiD_Compositional_Changes.
