As PSMATCH2 uses regression to derive those estimates, you can do the same
manually. In fact, I'd suggest you add robust or cluster SE's (cluster on
pair ID). PSMATCH2 creates all the variables you'll need to run the
regression.

Subject: st: Propensity score matching: confidence intervals

Dear All

I would like to ask for your advice on the psmatch2 software.

I am using psmatch2 to determine program impact. I am using the kernel
and nearest neighbour estimators. Kindly advise on the following:

1. To report significance of ATT which test statistic should I use,
the one labelled T-stat or the z-statistic after bootstrapping?
2. If I use the T-stat, is there a way of obtaining confidence
intervals? I need to report the confidence intervals and p-valuesl for
a medical journal.

Kindly advise
