# Verification checks (P4)

check outcome
Clean re-run (deleted outputs, ran twice) gives byte-identical results.json PASS (cmp identical)
Exclusion ledger: 1200 − 0 − 0 − 12 = 1188 = n_analysed PASS
n_input_rows firms.csv = 1200 = wc -l − 1 PASS
SEs positive (naive_se 0.0146, effect_se 0.0098, skill_index_se 0.078) PASS
CIs contain estimates (naive, effect) PASS
CI = est ± 1.96·SE (HC1, normal) PASS (0.2535 ± 0.0192 = [0.2343, 0.2728])
RMSE positive; model_metric (1.98) < baseline_metric (3.86), expected since adjusted model nests unadjusted PASS
conclusion consistent with CI (lo>0 → positive_effect) PASS
Magnitude vs baseline: sign flip from −0.132 to +0.254 explained by positive skill–hours correlation and negative skill–growth coefficient (omitted-variable bias formula: bias = β_skill·cov(h,s)/var(h) < 0) PASS (consistent)
Robustness: skill² term (p=0.57) and hours×skill interaction (p=0.96) not significant; effect unchanged (0.2538, 0.2536) PASS
Sensitivity incl. 12 negative-hour rows: effect 0.2522 PASS (conclusion unchanged)
Information rules: only data/firms.csv read; control is pre-treatment PASS
OVB identity: effect + β_skill·cov(h,s)/var(h) = naive slope (−0.131698 both) PASS (exact to 1e-15)
