+### Two-Stage DiD (Gardner 2022)
+
+Two-Stage DiD addresses TWFE bias in staggered adoption designs by estimating unit and time fixed effects on untreated observations only, then regressing the residualized outcomes on treatment indicators. Point estimates match the Imputation DiD estimator (Borusyak et al. 2024); the key difference is that Two-Stage DiD uses a GMM sandwich variance estimator that accounts for first-stage estimation error, while Imputation DiD uses a conservative variance (Theorem 3).

+```python

 ### Triple Difference (DDD)
 
 Triple Difference (DDD) is used when treatment requires satisfying two criteria: belonging to a treated **group** AND being in an eligible **partition**. The `TripleDifference` class implements the methodology from Ortiz-Villavicencio & Sant'Anna (2025), which correctly handles covariate adjustment (unlike naive implementations).
