Hello,

I appreciate your help with the survey weights, and I have a follow-up question.
In case I want to use a propensity score matching method, do you recommend I use survey weights?

Suppose my dependent variable is IPV, treatment is treat, and I have a list of covariates, that can be used for matching and eventually linear regression. Can you please suggest the best code for the calculating the propensity scores?

I am confused if that step needs to have survey weights. Or if the scores get calculated and then it gets multiplied with d005 to give a weight I eventually use for linear regression. I greatly appreciate your help in this. Thank you.
