Abstract: In this paper, we introduce and describe the economic_insecurity package in Stata, containing the economic_insecurity, ei_abs, and ei_rel commands. The commands calculate the measures according to the economic insecurity indices characterized in Bossert et al. (2023) and Bossert and D’Ambrosio (2024).
