Dear R users,

Are you worried about the parallel trends assumption in your panel
regression? Use fixed effects individual slope models, controlling for
heterogeneous trends!

I am very pleased to announce that the package feisr is now available on
CRAN!

CRAN: https://cran.r-project.org/package=feisr
GitHub: https://github.com/ruettenauer/feisr

The packages feisr provides a function to estimate fixed effects individual
slope (FEIS) models. FEIS models constitute a more general version of the
often used conventional fixed effects (FE) panel models. In contrast to
conventional fixed effects models, data are not person ‘demeaned’, but
'detrended’ by the predicted individual slope of each person or group, which
relaxes the assumptions of parallel trends between treated and untreated
groups.

We are happy about any comments or feedback!

Best regards,
Tobias
