Include mean of dependent variable as a row in "etable" about fixest

[lrberge]

It is supported, there's the argument extraline doing that. Of course, you have to compute the means on your own.

Here's an example:

base = iris
names(base) = c("y", "x1", "x2", "x3", "species")
s = base$species

library(fixest)
est_setosa = feols(y ~ x1 + x2, base[s == "setosa",])
est_versicolor = feols(y ~ x1 + x2, base[s == "versicolor",])
est_virginica = feols(y ~ x1 + x2, base[s == "virginica",])

all_means = sapply(c("setosa", "versicolor", "virginica"),
                   function(v) mean(base[s == v, "y"]))

etable(est_setosa, est_versicolor, est_virginica, extraline = list("$\\bar{y}$"=all_means), tex = TRUE)

This leads to:

To place the line after the statistics you need to add a special markup in curly brackets (where:stat) at the beginning of the row name:

etable(est_setosa, est_versicolor, est_virginica, extraline = list("{where:stat}$\\bar{y}$"=all_means), tex = TRUE)

Which leads to:

You can add as many lines as you wish. For more customization of the table, there's this vignette.

Many thanks Laurent! I was able to implement this procedure after updating R to the latest version, followed by updating fixest to the latest version. Regards, Bhargav
