there are at least 3 user-written routines that might be related to this article; use -findit- to find and install these ebalance pbalchk mpbalchk (version of preceding for MI data) in addition for those using -cem- for matching, there are routines from the -cem- authors also Rich On 8/14/13 8:31 AM, Lukas Borkowski wrote: > Dear list, > > based on this statalist post (http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2013-01/msg00516.html) I have read Austin, P.C. (2009) on how to check the balancing properties of the covariates between matched treated and untreated observations after PSM using the empirical sampling distribution of the standardized difference as alternative to t-tests. I was wondering whether there is a Stata command (user-written or else) to run this approach? My search was not successful. > > Best, Lukas > > Austin, P.C., 2009.
