This package provides several cluster-robust variance estimators (i.e., sandwich estimators) for ordinary and weighted least squares linear regression models, including the bias-reduced linearization estimator introduced by Bell and McCaffrey (2002) http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/12-001-x/2002002/article/9058-eng.pdf and developed further by Pustejovsky and Tipton (2017) doi:10.1080/07350015.2016.1247004. The package includes functions for estimating the variance- covariance matrix and for testing single- and multiple-contrast hypotheses based on Wald test statistics. Tests of single regression coefficients use Satterthwaite or saddle-point corrections. Tests of multiple-contrast hypotheses use an approximation to Hotelling's T-squared distribution. Methods are provided for a variety of fitted models, including lm()
and mlm
objects, glm()
, ivreg (from package AER
), plm()
(from package plm
), gls()
and lme()
(from nlme
), robu()
(from robumeta
), and rma.uni()
and rma.mv()
(from metafor
).
