In CAUSALITY/social.csv the primary year is 2006 in variable primary2006, while in PREDICTION/social.csv the primary year is 2008 in variable primary2008. Since these should both be the same data from

Alan S. Gerber, Donald P. Green, and Christopher W. Larimer. (2008). “Social Pressure and Voter > Turnout: Evidence from a Large-Scale Field Experiment.” American Political Science Review, Vol. > 102, No. 1, pp. 33–48.

the primary year should be 2006 in both. This also affects the code and text in Section 4.3 that refers to the 2008 primary and primary2008 variable.

Thanks for noticing this typo. Unfortunately, the book is in press but we will fix it in the next printing. Both the data set and code will be fixed once the second printing comes out.
