2. Match each participant to one or more nonparticipants on propensity score, using one of these methods: Nearest neighbor matching; Optimal full matching: match each participants to unique non-participant(s) so as to minimize the total distance in propensity scores between participants and their matched non-participants.
Matching is a statistical technique that evaluates the effect of a treatment by comparing the treated and the non-treated units in an observational study or quasi-experiment (i.e. when the treatment is not randomly assigned).
Probability matching is a decision strategy in which predictions of class membership are proportional to the class base rates.Thus, if in the training set positive examples are observed 60% of the time, and negative examples are observed 40% of the time, then the observer using a probability-matching strategy will predict (for unlabeled examples) a class label of "positive" on 60% of instances ...
An alternative estimator is the augmented inverse probability weighted estimator (AIPWE) combines both the properties of the regression based estimator and the inverse probability weighted estimator. It is therefore a 'doubly robust' method in that it only requires either the propensity or outcome model to be correctly specified but not both.
The propensity theory of probability is a probability interpretation in which the probability is thought of as a physical propensity, disposition, or tendency of a given type of situation to yield an outcome of a certain kind, or to yield a long-run relative frequency of such an outcome.
A correlation coefficient is a numerical measure of some type of linear correlation, meaning a statistical relationship between two variables. [a] The variables may be two columns of a given data set of observations, often called a sample, or two components of a multivariate random variable with a known distribution.

Predictive mean matching (PMM) [1] is a widely used [2] statistical imputation method for missing values, first proposed by Donald B. Rubin in 1986 [3] and R. J. A. Little in 1988. [ 4 ] It aims to reduce the bias introduced in a dataset through imputation, by drawing real values sampled from the data. [ 5 ]
