rcr: Bounding a linear causal effect using relative correlation restrictions

This repository contains Stata, R, and Python packages to implement the estimator described in my paper "Bounding a linear causal effect using relative correlation restrictions" (Journal of Econometric Methods 2016).

• The Python module is called rcrbounds and is available in the python folder.
• The Stata package is called rcr and is available in the stata folder.
• The R package is called rcrbounds and is available in the r folder.

The repository also contains Fortran source code for an older version of the Stata package, and various support files for testing.

Folder structure

The folder structure is:

• python: Python module
• stata: Stata package
• r: R package
• test: support files for testing Stata package
• bin: binary executables for Fortran version (deprecated)
• src: Fortran source code (deprecated)

Please see the README.md file in each of these folders for additional details.
