***************************************************************************************************** * INTRODUCTION * This .do file contains the commands to replicate my article's empirical analysis * using STATA. Also please note that these data were updated to include a handful of observations * (approx. 10) since the article was submitted to Harvard Negotiation Law Review. These data * allow you to replicate the results reported, although not the exact statistics. * * The data include some variables broadly discussed in the paper but not analyzed in final models. * I include this additional information to allow others to examine alternate specifications of * the statistical models. * ***************************************************************************************************** * SET-UP AND LOAD DATA * Please note that you may need to download the data and load it from your computer hard drive. use "http://www.poliscidata.com/replication/replicationMediatorsData.dta" regress setrate caseFactors attorney femaleMed ncases hourlyRate if ncases >= 9 ***************************************************************************************************** * GENERATING THE CASE FACTOR SCORES * The data file on individual mediators contains the composite case factors variables used in the * analysis reported in Table 11.
