Sentence examples for range of propensity from inspiring English sources

However, we do not match anyone whose propensity score falls outside a common support and we further restrict the number of potential matches for a respondent to a caliper, meaning a limited range of propensity scores close to the treated respondent, in order to avoid matches of poor quality (see Bryson et al. [2002]).

The distributions of propensity scores in wood and NG users differed but provided sufficient range of propensity scores in both groups to control for them in multivariate modeling.

The "Common Support Area" refers to the range of propensity score values which include members of both treatment groups; it is often recommended that individuals outside the Common Support Area be "trimmed" (i.e., removed) from the analysis.

As David Wiggins (1987: 206) describes the view, considered as a general theory of value, it holds: "x is good if and only if x is the sort of thing that calls forth or makes appropriate a certain sentiment of approbation given the range of propensities we have to respond in this or that way".

As we noted earlier, we present estimates for three ranges of the propensity score, with our preferred sample containing individuals with propensity scores that lie in [0.001, 0.40] for men and [0.001, 0.35] for women.

Using the STATA 10.0 "atts" command, the full range of sample members' propensity scores is divided into propensity score strata, or blocks, each of which includes treatment and control cases with the same or nearly the same propensities for receiving the treatment.
