Bayesian model averaging for nonparametric discontinuity design.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Quasi-experimental research designs, such as regression discontinuity and interrupted time series, allow for causal inference in the absence of a randomized controlled trial, at the cost of additional assumptions.

Cultural Values as Contributors to Latinx Student Grades

open access: yesInternational Journal on Studies in Education, 2023
Cultural discontinuity, or the misalignment of learning processes based on cultural values practiced at home and at school, is one factor that has been explored in the educational experiences of racial/ethnic minority students. The purpose of the current

Cognitive Status in People With Epilepsy in the Republic of Guinea: A Prospective, Case–Control Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective People with epilepsy (PWE) may experience cognitive deficits but fail to undergo formal evaluation. This study compares cognitive status between PWE and healthy controls in the West African Republic of Guinea. Methods A cross‐sectional, case–control study was conducted in sequential recruitment phases (July 2024–July 2025) at Ignace ...

Robustness of Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Designs under Imperfect Compliance

open access: yesRatio Mathematica
This paper studies the robustness of fuzzy regression discontinuity designs under imperfect compliance with clinical assignment rules. When treatment assignment based on a biomarker threshold is probabilistic, the cutoff indicator can be interpreted as ...

Effect of Named, Accountable GPs on Continuity of Care: Protocol for a Regression Discontinuity Study of a National Policy Change

open access: yesInternational Journal of Integrated Care, 2016
Introduction: Increasing continuity of care has been identified as a strategy to improve patient outcomes, but previous studies of integrated care have tended to focus on pilot areas, which limit their generalisability and the ability to determine in ...

Optimal bandwidth choice for robust bias-corrected inference in regression discontinuity designs [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrics Journal, 2018
Modern empirical work in regression discontinuity (RD) designs often employs local polynomial estimation and inference with a mean square error (MSE) optimal bandwidth choice.

Simultaneous Selection of Optimal Bandwidths for the Sharp Regression Discontinuity Estimator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A new bandwidth selection rule that uses different bandwidths for the local linear regression estimators on the left and the right of the cut-off point is proposed for the sharp regression discontinuity estimator of the mean program impact at the cut-off

A Robust Adaptive One‐Sample‐Ahead Preview Super‐Twisting Sliding Mode Controller

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
Block Diagram of the Robust Adaptive One‐Sample‐Ahead Preview Super‐Twisting Sliding Mode Controller. ABSTRACT This article introduces a discrete‐time robust adaptive one‐sample‐ahead preview super‐twisting sliding mode controller. A stability analysis of the controller by Lyapunov criteria is developed to demonstrate its robustness in handling both ...

Bounds on treatment effects in regression discontinuity designs with a manipulated running variable

open access: yesQuantitative Economics, 2020
The key assumption in regression discontinuity analysis is that the distribution of potential outcomes varies smoothly with the running variable around the cutoff.

The Effect of Seeding on Tournament Outcomes: Evidence From a Regression-Discontinuity Design

open access: yes, 2021
Seeding in tournaments is a process of creating a schedule based on performance in the recent past. It is used in many athletic disciplines to ensure that particularly attractive match ups do not occur until the later stages of the tournament. We exploit
