Baseline Equivalence: What it is and Why it is Needed

Mary Anne Anderson and Nan Maxwell

Mathematica Policy Research Reports from Mathematica Policy Research

Abstract: This guide is designed to help practitioners and researchers work together to design an impact study with baseline equivalence—or as close to it as possible. When funders are deciding what programs to fund and scale, it’s important that they see evidence of baseline equivalence to have confidence in the program’s effectiveness.
