Efficiency of Average Treatment Effect Estimation When the True Propensity Is Parametric
It is well known that efficient estimation of average treatment effects can be obtained by the method of inverse propensity score weighting, using the estimated propensity score, even when the true one is known.

Introduction to propensity scores [PDF]
AbstractAlthough randomization provides a gold‐standard method of assessing causal relationships, it is not always possible to randomly allocate exposures. Where exposures are not randomized, estimating exposure effects is complicated by confounding. The traditional approach to dealing with confounding is to adjust for measured confounding variables ...

Covariate Balancing Propensity Score [PDF]
SummaryThe propensity score plays a central role in a variety of causal inference settings. In particular, matching and weighting methods based on the estimated propensity score have become increasingly common in the analysis of observational data. Despite their popularity and theoretical appeal, the main practical difficulty of these methods is that ...
