Audience: Researchers who are use or are interested in using matching. Taught in R (familiarity is assumed) but concepts transfer to other software. An introduction to matching, such as propensity score matching, using R's "optmatch" package. We will discuss the theory behind matching and propensity scores, followed by examples using R to perform the matching […]
Audience: Those who have never used Stata before but wish to learn. By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to: Work with Stata, including using Do-files and using the help system; Get data into Stata and manage your data files; Establish familiarity with your data; Clean the data to prepare it for […]
