propensity score matching designs
Propensity score matching designs refer to a statistical method used in observational studies to create comparable groups based on their likelihood, or propensity, of receiving a particular treatment or exposure. This approach helps to balance the observed characteristics between the treated and control groups, enabling researchers to estimate the causal effects of the treatment accurately.
