Uganda Youth Opportunity Program Treatment Effect Data

Individual-level data from the YOP experiment in Uganda includes geo-referenced coordinates and experimental outcomes. The dataset contains variables for treatment assignment, observed outcomes, and location keys linking to images. It was authored by cjerzak and last updated on July 19, 2025.

Use Cases

• Estimate treatment effects on Yobs using the Wobs treatment assignment variable.
• Analyze spatial heterogeneity of treatment effects using geo_long and geo_lat coordinates.
• Link experimental unit data to external imagery via the geo_long_lat_key for image-based analysis.

Strengths

• Contains geo-referenced data with geo_long and geo_lat coordinates for spatial analysis.
• Includes explicit treatment (Wobs) and outcome (Yobs) variables for causal inference.

Limitations

• Sample size and number of rows are unknown.
• Geographic coverage is limited to Uganda, limiting generalizability.
• Data completeness and potential missing values are not described.
