The PSMATCH Procedure

Syntax: PSMATCH Procedure

The following statements are available in the PSMATCH procedure:

  • PROC PSMATCH <options>;

  • ASSESS <LPS>   <PS>   <VAR=(var-list)>   </ assess-options> ;

  • BY variables;

  • CLASS variables;

  • FREQ variable;

  • MATCH <options>;

  • OUTPUT OUT <(OBS=obs-value )>=SAS-data-set <keyword=name <keyword=name …>> ;

  • PSDATA TREATVAR=treatvar <(TREATED='level' )> <option>;

  • PSMODEL treatvar <(TREATED='level' )> = <effects> </ WEIGHT=weight> ;

  • STRATA <options>;

The PROC PSMATCH statement invokes the PSMATCH procedure. The CLASS statement and either a PSMODEL or PSDATA statement are required. If a PSMODEL statement is specified, the CLASS statement must precede the PSMODEL statement. The STRATA statement is not used if a MATCH statement is also specified.

The following sections describe PROC PSMATCH statement and then describe the other statements in alphabetical order.
