Boundary Discontinuity Designs: Theory and Practice
Matias D. Cattaneo, Rocio Titiunik, Ruiqi Rae Yu
The boundary discontinuity (BD) design is a non-experimental method for identifying causal effects that exploits a thresholding rule based on a bivariate score and a boundary curve…
Estimation and Inference in Boundary Discontinuity Designs: Distance-Based Methods
Matias D. Cattaneo, Rocio Titiunik, Ruiqi Rae Yu
We study nonparametric distance-based (isotropic) local polynomial methods for estimating the boundary average treatment effect curve, a causal functional that captures treatment e…
Leveraging Covariates in Regression Discontinuity Designs
Matias D. Cattaneo, Filippo Palomba
It is common practice to incorporate additional covariates in empirical economics. In the context of Regression Discontinuity (RD) designs, covariate adjustment plays multiple role…
rdhte: Conditional Average Treatment Effects in RD Designs
Sebastian Calonico, Matias D. Cattaneo, Max H. Farrell +2
Understanding causal heterogeneous treatment effects based on pretreatment covariates is a crucial aspect of empirical work. Building on Calonico, Cattaneo, Farrell, Palomba, and T…
Estimation and Inference in Boundary Discontinuity Designs: Location-Based Methods
Matias D. Cattaneo, Rocio Titiunik, Ruiqi Rae Yu
Boundary discontinuity designs are used to learn about causal treatment effects along a continuous assignment boundary that splits units into control and treatment groups according…
