Interrupted time series analysis (ITSA) is a study design used to study the effects of an intervention across time. An important feature of the ITSA is the time when the intevention occurs. The time before and after the intervention are of interest because we want to visualize if the trends are similar or different. Additionally, we want to visualize the change immediately after the intervention is implemenated. I call this period the index date.
In this article, I’ll review the single-group ITSA and multiple groups ITSA. Then I’ll review how to perform an ITSA in Stata.
You can view the complete tutorial on my RPubs site.
