A reference to what I'd like to accomplish:
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/st...by-simulation/
I think the easiest way to do this is to give a brief description of what I hope to achieve:
I want to test whether or not a policy change at an institution has an impact on outcomes for people in an institution. Let us assume there are N possible institutions in our universe. Some portion of those N institutions, say αN, α∈(0,1), implement this policy change of interest. Assume these institutions implement this policy change at (randomly) staggered intervals (and implementation is i.i.d between institutions).
How could I simulate data to determine whether or not this policy change significantly impacts outcomes for people working in these αN institutions using a generalized DiD approach?
