perform matching estimations to analyse the treatment effect on the treated. In the cross-section estimation, we find …-participants. Therefore, we combine matching with difference-in-difference estimation (to control for unobserved heterogeneity), Doing so, we … matching estimation can be decomposed into a causal effect (6%-points), correlated unobserved heterogeneity and negative spill …

Matching-type estimators using the propensity score are the major workhorse in active labour market policy evaluation …. This work investigates if machine learning algorithms for estimating the propensity score lead to more credible estimation … of average treatment effects on the treated using a radius matching framework. Considering two popular methods, the …
