MNA completes a statistical design and methodology report for Department of Labor

MNA completes a statistical design/ methodology report to explain the process of case matching in a quasi-experimental design (QED) for its DOL-funded TAACCCT grants. Using the process of genetic matching, a method of multivariate matching that uses an evolutionary search algorithm, the report explains the processes and procedures that greatly improve covariate balances.
