תקציר	The multi-period matching estimator extends the standard matching framework to settings with multiple time periods, pairing each treated unit to similar untreated units based on pre-treatment covariates or propensity scores, then using within-pair before-after differences to estimate the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT). Leveraging repeated observations, it simultaneously controls for observed confounders and time-invariant unobserved heterogeneity.	The Dynamic Matching Estimator extends standard matching methods to settings where treatment is assigned sequentially over multiple periods. Instead of a single treatment decision, units receive or forgo treatment at each time point, and the estimator identifies causal effects of entire treatment histories by matching on time-varying covariates and past treatment paths, under sequential conditional independence assumptions.
