Overview

About

Maintained by Jason BryerFirst published 2013-11-268 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

It is often advantageous to test a hypothesis more than once in the context of propensity score analysis (Rosenbaum, 2012) doi:10.1093/biomet/ass032. The functions in this package facilitate bootstrapping for propensity score analysis (PSA). By default, bootstrapping using two classification tree methods (using 'rpart' and 'ctree' functions), two matching methods (using 'Matching' and 'MatchIt' packages), and stratification with logistic regression. A framework is described for users to implement additional propensity score methods. Visualizations are emphasized for diagnosing balance; exploring the correlation relationships between bootstrap samples and methods; and to summarize results.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("PSAboot", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-psaboot

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-PSAboot

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
