Propensity score methods for observational studies with clustered data: A review

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2022
Propensity score methods are a popular approach to mitigating confounding bias when estimating causal effects in observational studies. When study units are clustered (eg, patients nested within health systems), additional challenges arise such as ...

Applying Propensity Score Methods in Clinical Research in Neurology

open access: yesNeurology, 2021
Propensity score–based analysis is increasingly being used in observational studies to estimate the effects of treatments, interventions, and exposures. We introduce the concept of the propensity score and how it can be used in observational research. We

A Comparison of Propensity Score and Linear Regression Analysis of Complex Survey Data

open access: yesJournal of Data Science, 2021
We extend propensity score methodology to incorporate survey weights from complex survey data and compare the use of multiple linear regression and propensity score analysis to estimate treatment effects in observational data from a complex survey.

An Introduction to Propensity Score Methods for Reducing the Effects of Confounding in Observational Studies

open access: yesMultivariate Behavioral Research, 2011
The propensity score is the probability of treatment assignment conditional on observed baseline characteristics. The propensity score allows one to design and analyze an observational (nonrandomized) study so that it mimics some of the particular ...

Some Practical Guidance for the Implementation of Propensity Score Matching

open access: yesSocial Science Research Network, 2005
Propensity Score Matching (PSM) has become a popular approach to estimate causal treatment effects. It is widely applied when evaluating labour market policies, but empirical examples can be found in very diverse fields of study.
