Matching is a statistical technique which is used to evaluate the effect of a treatment by comparing the treated and the non-treated units in an observational study or quasi-experiment (i.e. when the treatment is not randomly assigned). The goal of matching is, for every treated unit, to find one (or more) non-treated unit(s) with similar observable characteristics against whom the effect of the treatment can be assessed. By matching treated units to similar non-treated units, matching enables a comparison of outcomes among treated and non-treated units to estimate the effect of the treatment reducing bias due to confounding. Propensity score matching, an early matching technique, was developed as part of the Rubin causal model, but has been shown to increase model dependence, bias, inefficiency, and power and is no longer recommended compared to other matching methods.

匹配是一种统计方法，在观察研究或准实验研究（即）内经处理及未经处理的单位，以评估处理的效果。。匹配的目标是，对于每个治疗单位，找到一个(或多个)非治疗单位具有类似的可观察特征，对照治疗的效果可以进行评估。通过将治疗单位与类似的非治疗单位进行匹配，匹配可以使治疗单位与非治疗单位之间的结果进行比较，从而评估治疗减少混杂造成的偏倚的效果。早期的匹配技术---- 倾向评分匹配匹配技术，是作为虚拟事实模型匹配技术的一部分而发展起来的，但已经被证明会增加模型依赖性、偏倚、低效和功率，与其他匹配方法相比不再被推荐使用。
