cobalt: Covariate Balance Tables and Plots

#' Data from National Supported Work Demonstration and PSID, as analyzed by
#' Dehejia and Wahba (1999).
#'
#' This is a subsample of the data from the treated group in the National
#' Supported Work Demonstration (NSW) and the comparison sample from the
#' Population Survey of Income Dynamics (PSID). This data was previously
#' analyzed extensively by Lalonde (1986) and Dehejia and Wahba (1999).
#' 
#' `lalonds_mis` is the same dataset with missing values in three of the covariates.
