This webinar introduces the basic concepts of causal inference, including counterfactuals and potential outcomes. We will demonstrate how to use Stata's teffects suite of commands to fit causal models using propensity-score matching, inverse-probability weighting, regression adjustment, “doubly robust” estimators, and nearest-neighbor matching.
