Code used in the project evaluating England's Teenage Pregnancy Strategy.
The file Synth-iterations-report.rmd will produce outputs for Synthetic Control analyses. The Interrupted Time Series analyses can be reproduced here using a Shiny app (repo for Shiny app here)
To get started, clone the repository, open teen-preg-project.Rproj and run renv::restore() in Rstudio. Open Synth-iterations-report.rmd and run all chunks to reproduce synthetic control analyses.
The R folder contains all code developed throughout the project.
