Propensity score matching [PDF]

open access: possible, 2001
The typical evaluation problem aims at quantifying the impact of a ÔtreatmentÕ (e.g. a training programme, a reform, or a medicine) on an outcome of interest (such as earnings, school attendance or illness indicators), where a group of units, the ÔtreatedÕ, receive the ÔtreatmentÕ, while a second group remains untreated.

Propensity Scores and Propensity Score Matching for Assessing Multiple Confounders

2012
In the Chap. 23 methods for assessing confounders were reviewed. Propensity score are ideal for assessing confounding, particularly, if multiple confounders are in a study. E.g., age and cardiovascular risk factors may not be similarly distributed in two treatment groups of a parallel-group study. Propensity score matching is used to make observational

Matched or unmatched analyses with propensity‐score–matched data?

Statistics in Medicine, 2018
Propensity‐score matching has been used widely in observational studies to balance confounders across treatment groups. However, whether matched‐pairs analyses should be used as a primary approach is still in debate. We compared the statistical power and type 1 error rate for four commonly used methods of analyzing propensity‐score–matched samples with

Statistical matching: hot deck or propensity score?

Quality & Quantity
This empirical study compares hot deck (HD) and propensity score (PS) statistical matching methods (SM) with the aim of providing useful guidance to researchers interested in implementing SM methods. Our main goal is to narrow the methodological gap between the two approaches to statistical matching.

Propensity Scores and Matching Methods

2018
Many studies aim to estimate causal effects of risk factors, interventions, or programs, on outcomes of interest. While randomization is generally seen as the preferred design for estimating causal effects it is not always possible to randomize the “treatments” of interest, especially in the social sciences. Propensity scores are a useful tool that can
