thanks for this really powerful R package! Is it possible to have a (zero-inflated) count variable as an outcome variable instead of a continuous one? Does the application of zero-inflated count data as an outcome variable contradict any of PanelMatch´s assumptions? I am currently working on how autocratiaztion onset (treatment) affect domestic terrorism (count data that is zero-inflated).
@LarsPelke Yes the outcome can be anything. For your case, you can interpret the effect to be the average number of terrorism events caused by autocritization.

Thanks for your clarification. Best, Lars
