Coarsened Exact Matching in Education Research

Coarsened Exact Matching (CEM) is a pre-processing matching strategy that reduces imbalance between treated and comparison groups before outcome analysis. In education research it is used to create balanced comparison groups from administrative records, survey data, or quasi-experimental study designs — for example comparing students who received an intervention against comparable students who did not, without relying on randomisation.
