Reviews

Pan and Bai have assembled a comprehensive volume on all aspects of propensity score methods. Both the user and the statistician will find something to like in this book. I recommend it. --William R. Shadish, PhD, Distinguished Professor of Psychology, University of California, Merced This book effectively synthesizes general principles of PSA with recent developments regarding complex issues such as estimation techniques, covariate balance, weighting, complex datasets, and sensitivity analysis. The discussion of statistical software and examples of computer code are helpful additions. This book will be useful to graduate students and applied researchers who are interested in learning about PSA for the first time or who have some knowledge and would like to learn about issues and recent developments. I recommend it as a textbook for graduate-level courses in methods of causal inference or as a reference for researchers in the social and biomedical sciences. --Suzanne E. Graham, EdD, Department of Education, University of New Hampshire There is no question that this book will serve as an excellent resource for those who want to add PSA to their repertoire of analytical methods. The chapters provide sufficient materials and examples to help both 'green hands' and seasoned analysts deal with the methodological and practical challenges of applying PSA in research work. --Xitao Fan, PhD, Chair Professor and Dean, Faculty of Education, University of Macau, China This book is a go-to guide for designing and analyzing observational data. The editors have produced a brilliant work that addresses both methodological and practical issues in propensity score analysis. A 'must read' for all biostatisticians as well as applied researchers in the social, behavioral, and health sciences. --Ding-Geng (Din) Chen, PhD, School of Nursing and Department of Biostatistics and Computational Biology, University of Rochester Medical Center
