Interface Updates

  • Enter year to change directly in Customize Scenario Change, without having to click Next or Previous, which goes year by year.
  • Added Export of SCE files into IFs Standard CSV format.
  • Added Import of IFs Standard CSV format files into SCE.
  • Fix problem in comparing countries and groups in pyramids.

Model Updates

  • Updated Conflict Model to use: logit(SFCIVILWARUCDP) = - 4.292 + 0.003 * INFMORT - 0.008 * TRADEOPEN + 0.254 *CONTIGUITYINTLWARADD + 0.293 * DEMOCPOLYARCHY - 0.057 DEMOCPOLYARCHY^2
  • where FCIVILWARUCDP is the probability of intrastate conflict for country c in year t; iNFMORT is the infant mortality (deaths per 1,000), for country c in year t; This can be directly read from SeriesInfMortRateIHME. TRADEOPEN measures the trade openness of country c in year t, defined by a country’s total trade, which is the sum of import and export values, as a percent of its GDP for a given year; This can be calculated by summing up SeriesExportGoodSer% & SeriesImportGoodSer%. CONTIGUITYINTLWARADD represents the total number of country c’s neighboring countries that are experiencing intrastate conflicts in year t.

DEMOCPOLYARCHY represents level of electoral democracy, ranging from 0 to 10, with a higher score indicating a higher level of electoral democracy. This can be done by multiplying SeriesPolyarchy by 10.
