Do Universal Free School Meals Improve the Dietary Quality of Food‐At‐Home Purchases?
ABSTRACT Since 2014, the number of schools offering universal free meals to all enrolled children without requiring annual meal applications has increased meaningfully. Using USDA's Purchase to Plate Crosswalk, a difference‐in‐differences framework, and a nationwide consumer panel, the effect of universal‐free‐meal exposure on the diet quality of food ...

ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between participation in the EU Rural Development Program and the economic performance of Italian olive farms using a finite‐mixture model with inverse‐probability‐weighted regression adjustment. Based on 2010–2022 FADN panel data, it estimates heterogeneous treatment effects while correcting for selection ...

Low Participation and Risk Reduction Potential of Supplemental Crop Insurance in the United States
ABSTRACT Federally subsidized crop insurance is a cornerstone of U.S. farm risk management, yet policies with the greatest share of participation only trigger indemnities after losses exceed 15%. Supplemental insurance was introduced to cover part of this deductible, but participation remains largely unchanged.

Adjusted survival curves with inverse probability weights
Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2004Kaplan-Meier survival curves and the associated nonparametric log rank test statistic are methods of choice for unadjusted survival analyses, while the semiparametric Cox proportional hazards regression model is used ubiquitously as a method for covariate adjustment.

Constructing inverse probability weights for institutional comparisons in healthcare
Statistics in Medicine, 2020In comparing quality of care between hospitals, disease‐specific quality indicators measure structural, process, or outcome elements related to the care of a particular condition. Such comparisons can be framed in terms of causal contrasts, answering the question of whether a patient (or a population of patients on average) would receive different care

Behind the Numbers: Inverse Probability Weighting
Radiology, 2014Inverse probability weighting is a propensity score-based technique that can be used to compensate for imbalance in study groups. It is an alternative to regression-based adjustment of the outcomes. It has advantages over matching of cases on the basis of propensity scores when there are more than two groups to compare, when finding matches results in ...
