PSTRATA: Stata module for optimal propensity score stratification

Ariel Linden

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: pstrata stratifies the propensity score into an optimal number of quantiles (meaning, strictly, quantile-based bins), where optimal means that no statistical differences are found on the propensity score between treatment groups within any quantile. pstrata generates strata variables for binary as well as multiple treatments.
