| Subject | st: psmatch2: ATT as percentage change using logs? |
| Date | Thu, 15 Aug 2013 15:25:55 +0200 |
Dear statalist, I am using the user-written command -psmatch2- (written by Leuven and Sianesi, 2003) to estimate the ATT of my participation variable on several outcome indicators. I am also using a DiD-regression approach to estimate the ATT where I transformed some of the indicators into logs to see the percentage change caused by the treatment. I wonder whether it is also reasonable to transform the outcome indicators into logs when running -psmatch2-. Can someone give me a quick hint? Thanks! Best, Lukas Leuven, E., and Sianesi, B.
