  • Propensity Score Matching Query

    Hey there!

    Apologies in advance for the ignorance but I'm graciously seeking assistance about teffects PSM output.

    Essentially I'm looking to match my treatment (illicit drug users) and 'control' (non-illicit) groups based on five covariates to determine whether these they differ on aggressive outcomes. I've run a basic logistic, the output of which is below.

    I've proceeded run a nearest neighbour analysis, with a caliper of .20. Output is below.

    I'm slightly confused about the interpretation of the latter output. Am I to interpret this as a regression? Is the coefficient an odds ratio, or a risk ratio, or something else entirely? Is it possible to compare the Z scores across these two outputs?

    Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
