Zusammenfassung	Robust Propensity Score Weighting extends standard inverse probability weighting by incorporating safeguards against misspecification of the propensity score model and extreme weights. It combines techniques such as weight trimming, overlap weighting, or augmented outcome models to ensure that causal effect estimates remain reliable even when the propensity score model is imperfectly specified.	Inverse Probability Weighting is a causal-inference method that assigns each observation a weight equal to the inverse of its probability of receiving the treatment it actually received. Introduced by Robins, Hernán and Brumback (2000) for marginal structural models, it builds a pseudo-population in which treatment is independent of measured confounders, balancing selection bias.
