Conducting a leave-one-out robustnesstest for Synthetic Control Method

[Sebastian Hansen]

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to ask you if anyone is familiar with conducting the leave-one-out robustness tests for a synthetic control method analysis in STATA?

I have conducted the placebo studies in accordance to this post: https://www.statalist.org/forums/for...control-method, but I have not been able to find any help online regarding the leave-one-out test.

I know i am supposed to create a loop, where I iteratively reestimate the baseline model to construct the synthesization by excluding high weighted control units. - But I simply cannot get the coding correct.

I hope you can help
Thanks in advance
