matching estimators exhibit the opposite behavior: they limit interpolation bias at the potential expense of extrapolation bias …. We propose combining the matching and synthetic control estimators through model averaging to create an estimator called … the SC, matching, MASC and penalized SC estimators do (and do not) perform well. Then, we use the MASC re-examine the …

We develop a new approach to measuring the correlation between the types of matched workers and firms. Our approach accurately measures the correlation in data sets with many workers and firms, but a small number of independent observations for each. Using administrative data from Austria, we...

The design of the New York City (NYC) High School match involved tradeoffs among efficiency, stability and strategy-proofness that raise new theoretical questions. We analyze a model with indifferences--ties--in school preferences. Simulations with field data and the theory favor breaking...

Matching estimators (Rubin, 1973a, 1977; Rosenbaum, 2002) are widely used in statistical data analysis. However, the … large sample distribution of matching estimators has been derived only for particular cases (Abadie and Imbens, 2006). This … article establishes a martingale representation for matching estimators. This representation allows the use of martingale …
