Greetings fellow humans, I am attempting to export a text file after using the MatchIt package to match control with treatment subjects. I attempted to write.table and used the following syntax: "write.table(social,"shaka.txt",sep=" ",quote=FALSE,row.names=FALSE,col.names= FALSE)" But received the following error message: "Error in

UseRs, I tried to install the MatchIt package on Ubuntu 7.04. When loading required dependencies I got the following error message: Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/optmatch/libs/optmatch.so': /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/optmatch/libs/optmatch.so: cannot map zero-fill pages: Cannot

Hi there dear R users! Anyone knows why does matchit function returns error whenever the "hull" option is used (either "hull.both", "hull.control" or "hull.treat"). Things work well with all the rest of discard options. This is the error msg. >m.out.base <- matchit(formula=f, data=d, method=m, discard="hull.control") [1]

Hi! I am running a simulation testing group balance using different propensity score matching techniques. I am using the MatchIt package to match and analyze the data. Since I am running this analysis many, many times with different simulated data sets, I need to make the output from the MatchIt summary and put it into a dataset and then append each successive run to the end of that dataset.

Dear all, Does anybody know why the following code returns an error message? >library(MatchIt) >library(Zelig) >data(lalonde) > >m.out1<-matchit(treat~age+educ+black+hispan+nodegree+married +re74+re75, method="full", data=lalonde) > >z.out1<-zelig(re78~age+educ+black+hispan+nodegree+married+re74+re75, data=match.data(m.out1, "control"),

Hi! I'm trying to perform propensity score matching on survey data and so for each individual observation I have a statistical weight attached. My question is: is there a way within the package to consider these weights in the matching procedure? Thank you very much. -- Maria Cristina Maurizio [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

This may be a really obvious question but I just can't figure out how to do it. I have a small dataset that I am trying to compare to some controls. It is essential that the controls are matched on Cancer Stage (a numerical factor between 1 and 4), and then ideally on Age (integer), Gender (factor), Performance Status(factor). I'm using matchit to try and do this, but it seems to give

Hi, Quick q. Has anyone tried this, and what's the success/failure of this? Changing param/loadparm.c : /* Types of machine we can announce as. */ #define ANNOUNCE_AS_NT_SERVER 1 #define ANNOUNCE_AS_WIN95 2 #define ANNOUNCE_AS_WFW 3 #define ANNOUNCE_AS_NT_WORKSTATION 4 static const struct enum_list enum_announce_as[] = { {ANNOUNCE_AS_NT_SERVER, "NT"},

Hi there, Does anyone know how to extract data from a function that prints out two or more summaries? In the function below (the whole code is provided) we get 5 different tables of data. I would like to split each of these tables in a separate file (while the function itself shouldn't be changed), so that further analysis on each data set could be carried out. Your help is deeply

On the topic of when to use "suggests" and "depends" and on R version requirements. I have cc'd this message to R-devel because I am curious about what senior developpers think about these issues. The problem arises because we are using some functions from the package "matchit" in a new version of our package "portfolio". We are listing the matchit in

Hello, I am trying to use R for propensity score matching in SPSS.? I have version 21 of SPSS and I downloaded R 2.14.2 as directed as well as the R Essentials plug-in.? I have run a test for R and it appears to be running correctly.? I then downloaded psmatching3 and have tried to use the PS matching dialog in SPSS.? However, I continue to run into problems as SPSS reports that there is no

Hello! If I understand this listserve correctly, I can email this address to get help when I am struggling with code. If this is inaccurate, please let me know, and I will unsubscribe. I have been struggling with the same error message for a while, and I can't seem to get past it. Here is the issue: I am using a data set that uses -1:-9 to indicate various kinds of missing data. I changed

Dear R users, I am trying to estimate to estimate the average treatmen effect on the treated (ATT) using first the MatchIt software to weight the data set and, after this, the Zelig software as shown in Ho et al. (2007). See here for an explanation of how to apply this technique in R: http://imai.princeton.edu/research/files/matchit.pdf I encounter a slight problem when I apply the weights that

Good afternoon Running R2.10.0 on Windows I have a data frame that includes (among much else) a factor (In_2006) and a continuous variable (math_3_4). I would like to find the 2 cases for In_2006 = 0 that are closest to each case where In_2006 = 1. My data looks like In_2006 math_3_4 0 55.1 1 51.6 1 18.1 1 26.6 1 14.1

Hi All Please see the Rprofile file which i have modified as follows and after that when I start R then I see that R says to me "TRUE" for all the packages implying that all loaded at once. But when i try to use commands as simple as help("lm"), it doesnt work nor any of the menu "Packages" is not working. Although the regression using lm ( Y ~ X ) is working

Hi, I wanted to covert all my erb over to haml, but I use HTML5 tags like nav, section, article, etc. Any idea if this is supported by haml?

R-devel, There has been some confusion on the MatchIt package mailing list on the meaning of [--install=no] in the comment column of CRAN's automated package check. It's my understanding that, at the very least, a package marked like this will not have its test cases run each night. Are there other checks that are omitted? How, if at all, are such install flags related to the

Hola a todos! Espero que alguien me pueda echar algo de luz al problema que tengo. Estoy intentando instalar algunos paquetes antiguos en R (3.3.0), como ?devtools? en su penúltima versión, y me está resultando imposible. Instalé Rtools y R me dice que funciona, pero no consigo hacer que se instale el paquete. He probado bajando el paquete en formato .tar.gz y luego con las instrucciones:
