cps-data-analysis

separate

Use when running and reporting the analyses for a Comparative Political Studies (CPS) manuscript — estimation, uncertainty, robustness, and multi-method triangulation on comparative data. Sets analysis norms; it does not choose the identification strategy (see cps-research-design).

When to use

• Estimating main results, robustness, and heterogeneity
• Addressing reviewer questions on standard errors, specification, measurement, or fragility
• Deciding content for main text vs. supplementary/online appendix
• Triangulating quantitative estimates with case evidence
• Handling comparative-data hazards like few clusters and measurement error
• Running failure-mode audits for concept equivalence and selection
• Executing analysis batteries via StatsPAI or Stata MCP

When not to use

• Choosing the identification strategy
