baselinr: WWC-Aligned Baseline Equivalence Tables for Education Impact Evaluations
Produces report-ready baseline equivalence tables for impact evaluations in education research, following the conventions of the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC). Computes standardized mean differences (Hedges' g) between treatment and comparison groups for continuous covariates and classifies each covariate into the WWC baseline-equivalence categories (satisfied, satisfied with statistical adjustment, or not satisfied).
