reveal_outcomes {fabricatr}

Reveal outcomes

Description

Implements a generalized switching equation. Reveals observed outcomes from multiple potential outcomes variables and an assignment variable.

Usage

reveal_outcomes(x)

Arguments

x

A formula with the outcome name on the left hand side and assignment variables on the right hand side (e.g., Y ~ Z).

Examples

dat <- fabricate(
  N = 10,
  U = rnorm(N),
  potential_outcomes(Y ~ 0.1 * Z + U)
)

fabricate(
  data = dat,
  Z = rbinom(N, 1, prob = 0.5),
  Y = reveal_outcomes(Y ~ Z)
)

fabricate(
  N = 10,
  U = rnorm(N),
  potential_outcomes(Y ~ 0.1 * Z1 + 0.3 * Z2 + 0.5 * Z1 * Z2 + U,
                     conditions = list(Z1 = c(0, 1),
                                       Z2 = c(0, 1))),
  Z1 = rbinom(N, 1, prob = 0.5),
  Z2 = rbinom(N, 1, prob = 0.5),
  Y = reveal_outcomes(Y ~ Z1 + Z2)
)
