Can you tell me your syntax? I'm not sure how you are using plot.zelig()
to plot the propensity score. Are you using the plot function that comes
with MatchIt?
If the issue is just about the title, then what you can do is to go into
the pdf file of your plot (that is, open it in a text editor such as
emacs, NotePad, WinEdt, etc.), then do search and find "Distribution of
Propensity Scores" and simply delete those words (keep the quotation
marks).

Hi. I am using your MatchIt and Zelig programs, and plotted
(type="jitter") the propensity scores for matched participants via the
plot.zelig() function. The title: "Distribution of Propensity Scores"
seems to be hardcoded into this output. I am wondering if you knew how
to turn this off. The journal I'm submitting the manuscript to doesn't
want titles on the graphics.
Thanks for any help you can offer,
Alex

"I'm always amazed to see a psychologist offering a glib explanation of
some immensely complex behavioral incident when psychological science
has not even provided explanations for comparatively simple general
phenomena..." --Arthur R. Jensen
"At one time psychology courses were the recognized refuge of those who
wished to take a 'science' without facing the rigors of mathematics--as
encountered, for example, in chemistry and physics. Nowadays the
psychologist, and even the biologist need to be as good at mathematics
as the engineering student." --Raymond B. Cattell
