Event Study Regression Discontinuity. The Regression Discontinuity Designcan be applied in cases where a running variable aka. Regression discontinuity RD analysis is a rigorous nonexperimental1 approach that can be used to estimate program impacts in situations in which candidates are selected for treatment based on whether their value for a numeric rating exceeds a designated threshold or cut-point.
We used the regression discontinuity design RDD a quasi-experimental design comparing rates of all-cause mortality and CVE in people just below and just above the eligibility for treatment threshold. Regression Discontinuity 3 The basic idea in regression discontinuity is that the endogenous component of the error u it is similar in expectation as we approach the eligibility threshhold. This seminar focuses on methods for the analysis and interpretation of.
1 RD designs require seemingly mild assumptions compared to those needed for other nonexperimental approaches.
