Installing and running PSMATCHING3 R Extension command

Question & Answer


Question

I have downloaded the PSMATCHING3.03 extension command to perform propensity score matching in SPSS. I downloaded the current version from http://sourceforge.net/projects/psmspss/ . I have the correct version of R installed and the R Essentials for my SPSS version. I installed the PSMATCHING extension by installing the spd file under Utilities->Custom Dialogs as described in the Appendix of Thoemmes' paper, "Propensity Score Matching in SPSS". https://www.human.cornell.edu/hd/qml/upload/Thoemmes_2012.pdf The PS MATCHING menu option was added to my Analyze menu and I can open and run that dialog. However, when I do run PS Matching, I receive the error message, "The following is not recognized as an SPSS command"
