  • PSM with industry and year fixed effects

    Hello!

    When conducting a PSM, I wonder how to include industry and year fixed effects?
    Shall I do
    Code:
    global X var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 i.industry i.year
    psmatch2 D1 $X, out(y1) neighbor(1) common caliper(0.05) ties ate
    or
    Code:
    global X var1 var2 var3 var4 var5
    psmatch2 D1 $X i.industry i.year, out(y1) neighbor(1) common caliper(0.05) ties ate
    or there are some other ways to include industry and year fixed effects?

    Thanks a lot for any suggestions!
