PHACK_DEROUND: Stata module to deround coefficients and standard errors for meta-analysis

Nikolai Cook

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: phack_deround generates 4 variables useful for meta-analysis. To do this, the command accepts the coefficients and standard errors of a meta-analysis dataset (one coefficient and one standard error per observation). The command will then generate (1) the standard error's significand and generate (2) a variable which identifies the observations that should be kept according to Kranz and Putz (2022). The command will also apply the derounding applied in Brodeur et al. (2020) (which assumes that the missing-from-publication coefficient and standard error decimals are distributed uniformly) and generate (3) a smoothed coefficient and (4) a smoothed standard error value.
