Regression Discontinuity Designs With a Continuous Treatment [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Statistical Association, 2018
The standard regression discontinuity (RD) design deals with a binary treatment. Many empirical applications of RD designs involve continuous treatments. This paper establishes identification and robust bias-corrected inference for such RD design.

Rdrobust: Software for Regression-discontinuity Designs [PDF]

open access: yesThe Stata Journal: Promoting communications on statistics and Stata, 2017
We describe a major upgrade to the Stata (and R) rdrobust package, which provides a wide array of estimation, inference, and falsification methods for the analysis and interpretation of regression-discontinuity designs. The main new features of this upgraded version are as follows: i) covariate-adjusted bandwidth selection, point estimation, and ...

Including Covariates in the Regression Discontinuity Design [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2017
This article proposes a fully nonparametric kernel method to account for observed covariates in regression discontinuity designs (RDD), which may increase precision of treatment effect estimation. It is shown that conditioning on covariates reduces the asymptotic variance and allows estimating the treatment effect at the rate of one-dimensional ...

The Regression Discontinuity Design — Theory and Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In Regression Discontinuity (RD) designs for evaluating causal effects of interventions, assignment to a treatment is determined at least partly by the value of an observed covariate lying on either side of a fixed threshold.
