Three methods are supported, the stratification-multilevel method (see help {helpb hte sm}), the matching-smoothing method (see help {helpb hte ms}), and the smoothing-differencing method (see help {helpb hte sd}). {title:Dependencies} {pstd} {helpb hte sm} requires {cmd:pscore} (Becker and Ichino 2002) and {helpb hte ms} requires {cmd:psmatch2} (Leuven and Sianesi 2003). To install these programs on your system, type: . {stata "net install st0026_2, from(http://www.stata-journal.com/software/sj5-3)"} . {stata "ssc install psmatch2"} {title:References} {phang} Becker, Sascha O., Andrea Ichino. 2002.
