Σύνοψη	Heterogeneous Treatment Effect Propensity Score Matching extends standard PSM to estimate how treatment effects vary across subgroups or individual characteristics. Rather than reporting a single average treatment effect, it uses the matched sample to estimate conditional average treatment effects (CATE), revealing which types of units benefit most or least from a treatment.	Difference-in-Differences is a causal-inference method that estimates the effect of an intervention by comparing how a treatment group and a control group change over time. Made famous by Card and Krueger's 1994 minimum-wage study and developed in Angrist and Pischke's Mostly Harmless Econometrics, it isolates the treatment effect as the difference between the two groups' before-after changes.
