    <title>topic How to Use PROC PSMATCH to Match on Age with a Tolerance of 0.1 in Statistical Procedures</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello SAS Community,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am working on a project where I need to match subjects based on age using PROC PSMATCH.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;However, I require some flexibility in the matching criteria. Specifically, I need to match subjects such that their ages can differ by up to 0.1 years.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I found that the &lt;CODE&gt;EXACT&lt;/CODE&gt; statement in PROC PSMATCH specifies classification variables to be matched exactly, but this does not meet my requirement for age matching with a small tolerance.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Does anyone know how to implement this in PROC PSMATCH? Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you in advance for your help!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
