Hello again,

I have found my problem. To clarify everything, I am repeating my case. I have a two period panel data, 2000 and 2007. In 2005, there was a policy reform. Therefore, I can identify the participants by using data from 2007. I name it as "program".Then, the treated group is equal to "program". I generated treat_post05, an interaction dummy (the treatment effect).Consequently, treat_post05=treat.

Here is the example:
year	y	program	treat	post05	treat_post05
2000	10	0	0	0	0
2000	20	0	0	0	0
2000	30	0	0	0	0
2000	40	0	0	0	0
2000	50	0	0	0	0
2000	60	0	0	0	0
2007	70	0	0	1	0
2007	80	0	0	1	0
2007	90	0	0	1	0
2007	100	1	1	1	1
2007	110	1	1	1	1
2007	120	1	1	1	1


Basically, I can use the the simple t-test. But, I still need to include some control variables.

Any idea how to solve this?

Many thanks beforehand.

Best regards,
Inggrid
