How to using esttab and run a balance check

[Tin Cheng]

Hi, I want to ask how to use esttab and run a balance check. I don't know how to create a column for the difference between the value of control group and treatment group.

Here is my code:

regress abs ib1.hh_fem hh_age hh_educ sp_age sp_educ ib1.al_roof ib1.indoor_t farm if (time2016==0 & treat_v==0 & NGO==0)
est sto control
regress abs ib1.hh_fem hh_age hh_educ sp_age sp_educ ib1.al_roof ib1.indoor_t farm if (time2016==0 & treat_v==1 & NGO==1)
est sto treatment


eststo differences:  estpost ttest abs, by(treat_v) unequal


esttab control treatment differences, keep (hh_age hh_educ sp_age sp_educ) se(%9.3f) mtitles("Control" "Treatment" "differences")

Many Thanks,

This worked for me.

clear all
sysuse auto, clear

eststo e1: regress price displacement weight mpg if foreign
eststo e2: regress price displacement weight mpg if ~foreign
eststo e3: estpost ttest price displacement weight mpg, by(foreign) unequal

esttab e1 e2 e3

I don't know what "abs" is, but it's not in the models.
