Determining the extent of a disparity, if any, between groups of people, for example, race or gender, is of interest in many fields, including public health for medical treatment and prevention of disease or in discrimination cases concerning equal pay to estimate the pay disparities between minority and majority employees. An observed difference in the mean outcome between a majority/advantaged group (AG) and minority/disadvantaged group (DG) can be due to differences in the distribution of relevant covariates. The Peters Belson (PB) method fits a regression model with covariates to the AG to predict, for each DG member, their outcome measure as if they had been from the AG. The difference between the mean predicted and the mean observed outcomes of DG members is the (unexplained) disparity of interest. PB regression is a form of statistical matching, akin in spirit to Bhattacharya's band-width matching. In this paper we review the use of PB regression in legal cases from Hikawa et al. (2010b) Parametric and nonparametric approaches to PB regression are described and we show that in nonparametric PB regression choose a kernel function can be better resulted, i.e. by selecting the appropriate kernel function we can reduce bias and variance of estimators, also increase power of test.
