Hi,
I have a problem that I can't figure out, although I think it should be
easy to correct. I am new to Stata, so please forgive me if this is
obvious.
Lets say jail is the treatment and mental health is my final outcome,
a very simple matching formula would be:
psmatch2 jail race sex prior crime age, outcome (cesd94)
(I left out other options)
So, I am matching on race sex, etc.... to test whether jail has an
effect on mental health, after matching on the propensity to be in jail.
I have a treatment group of 124, and a matched sample of 124. Works
just fine, but now I want to double (or triple or so on) the size of my
matched sample, for example match the 2 closest individuals, to everyone in
jail. Rather then do a 1-1 match, I want to do a 2-1
match. I cannot seem to get this to work.
Thank you ,
