Regression–Discontinuity Analysis: A Survey of Recent Developments in Economics
Abstract
Abstract. This paper provides a discussion of recent developments related to the applicability of the regression discontinuity design in economics. It reviews econometric issues, such as identification and estimation methods, as well as a number of sensitivity and validity tests of importance in empirical application.

“Moreover, although the sharp design represents a special case of selection on observables (Heckman and Robb, 1985), common solutions to such selection problems, such as propensity score-matching methods, are not applicable here as the design violates the strong ignorability condition of Rosenbaum and Rubin (1983), whi…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
