| Previous: What MATCHIT Does | Up: Introduction | Next: Installing MATCHIT |
MATCHIT works in conjunction with the R programming language and statistical software, and will run on any platform where R is installed (Windows, Unix, or Mac OS X). R is available free for download at the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) at http://cran.r-project.org/. MATCHIT has been tested on the most recent version of R. A good way to learn R, if you don't know it already, is to learn Zelig (available at http://gking.harvard.edu/zelig) which includes a self-contained introduction to R and can be used to analyze the matched data after running MATCHIT.
