Steps to replicate regression analysis:

(All analysis performed in Stata 8.2. Do files include calls to outreg, available here: http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s375201.html)

1. Place the file QJPS_activekssentences.dta in the data subdirectory directory.

2. Run QJPS_BaseReplicationCode.do in Stata to create summary statistics [Table 2], Table 3 EXCEPT columns (3) and (6), and Table 5.

This do file creates this log file in the logs subdirectory: QJPS_BaseReplication.log.
It also creates 2 outreg files in that directory: QJPS_Table3.out and QJPS_Table5.out.

3. Run QJPS_Table3Columns3and6.do in Stata to create Table 3 columns (3) and (6).

This do file creates this log file in the logs subdirectory: QJPS_Table3Columns3and6.log.
It also creates this outreg file in that directory: QJPS_Table3_Columns3and6.out. 

4. Run QJPS_RobustnessChecks.do in Stata to generate the robustness checks discussed in the paper.

This do file creates this log file in the logs subdirectory: QJPS_RobustnessChecks.log.
It also creates this outreg file in that directory: QJPS_RobustnessDroppingDistricts.out.
