Hello,
I have a question regarding these two outputs from a DiD-model. First of all, sorry about the Norwegian, but I'll try to explain the models.
The models show the effect on sales on four different stores from treatments that happened at different times. The variable butikk_behandling#etablering is the DiD-estimator of the treatment on the four different shops.
In the first output, the dependent variable is the natural logarithm of sales, and in the second output, the dependent variable is sales in absolute values. Apart from this, the models are identical, which is why I cannot understand why I am left with two positive and two negative DiD-estimators in the first model, whereas in the second model there is only one negative value. Shouldn't the results be the same, only represented in different values (ln and non-ln?)?
I have a feeling this has got something to do with the fact that using ln_sales as dependent variables only gives me an approximation. However, I'm struggling to understand this and would really appreciate some help!
