fetwfe - Fused Extended Two-Way Fixed Effects
Calculates the fused extended two-way fixed effects
(FETWFE) estimator for unbiased and efficient estimation of
difference-in-differences in panel data with staggered
treatment adoption. This estimator eliminates bias inherent in
conventional two-way fixed effects estimators, while also
employing a novel bridge regression regularization approach to
improve efficiency and yield valid standard errors. Also
implements extended TWFE (etwfe) and bridge-penalized ETWFE
(betwfe). Provides S3 classes for streamlined workflow and
supports flexible tuning (ridge and rank-condition guarantees),
automatic covariate centering/scaling, and detailed overall and
cohort-specific effect estimates with valid standard errors.
Includes simulation and formatting utilities, extensive
diagnostic tools, vignettes, and examples. See Faletto (2025)
(<doi:10.48550/arXiv.2312.05985>).
