Package WhatIf updated to version 1.5-5 with previous version 1.5-4 dated 2007-10-14

Author: Heather Stoll , Gary King , Langche Zeng ,
Title: WhatIf: Software for Evaluating Counterfactuals
Description: Inferences about counterfactuals are essential for prediction, answering what if questions, and estimating causal effects. However, when the counterfactuals posed are too far from the data at hand, conclusions drawn from well-specified statistical analyses become based largely on speculation hidden in convenient modeling assumptions that few would be willing to defend. Unfortunately, standard statistical approaches assume the veracity of the model rather than revealing the degree of model-dependence, which makes this problem hard to detect. WhatIf offers easy-to-apply methods to evaluate counterfactuals that do not require sensitivity testing over specified classes of models. If an analysis fails the tests offered here, then we know that substantive inferences will be sensitive to at least some modeling choices that are not based on empirical evidence, no matter what method of inference one chooses to use. WhatIf implements the methods for evaluating counterfactuals discussed in Gary King and Langche Zeng, 2006, "The Dangers of Extreme Counterfactuals," Political Analysis 14 (2); and Gary King and Langche Zeng, 2007, "When Can History Be Our Guide? The Pitfalls of Counterfactual Inference," International Studies Quarterly 51 (March).

Package PBSmodelling updated to version 2.06 with previous version 2.01 dated 2008-10-26

Author: Jon T. Schnute , Alex Couture-Beil , Rowan Haigh , and Anisa Egeli
Title: PBS Modelling 2.06
Description: PBS Modelling provides software to facilitate the design, testing, and operation of computer models. It focuses particularly on tools that make it easy to construct and edit a customized graphical user interface (GUI). Although it depends heavily on the R interface to the Tcl/Tk package, a user does not need to know Tcl/Tk. The package contains examples that illustrate models built with other R packages, including PBSmapping, deSolve, PBSddesolve, and BRugs. It also serves as a convenient prototype for building new R packages, along with instructions and batch files to facilitate that process. The R directory '.../library/PBSmodelling/doc' includes a complete user guide PBSmodelling-UG.pdf. To use this package effectively, please consult the guide.
