A new preprint by Elizabeth Stone and colleagues explores methods for evaluating state-level policies in the US, offering insights relevant to UK policy evaluation. It covers selection of a range of approaches based on, for example, how a policy varies across the country, whether there is staggered roll out, and the availability of baseline data.
