I have a regression as follows:
$$ y = \alpha + \mu L + \beta_1 x + \beta_2 x^2 + \varepsilon $$
where L is a dummy, and x is a control variable.
Both $x$ and $x^2$ are significant when I run the ...

Propensity Score Matching and significance of estimators in logit regression
If I run a logistic regression to calculate a propensity score (i.e. the dependent variable is 0= do not participate in the treatment; 1= do participate) and therefore I want to see the probability a ...
