Building Block: RDD with a discrete running variable

[arutyunovv]

Dear @lachlandeer,

This is (a draft of) my article for the building block on RDDs with discrete running variables. It includes an explanation of why such RDDs differ from ones with a continuous assignment variable, three approaches that can be used for causal inference in such designs, a brief example in R, and a summary.

Please let me know which changes you think I should make; in the meantime, I will be reviewing it myself to see what can be improved. Thanks!

Best, Victor

Can you read this over and provide some suggestions to enhance?

Thanks!

@arutyunovv General remark on the file location. Make sure to add this .md file under content/topics/Analyze/causal-inference/rdd Then when you use hugo to preview the building block it should appear in the RDD section.

I'm yet to fully go through the building block. Will finalise my comments very soon :)

hey @arutyunovv

have you integrated the suggested changes from @srosh2000?

Hi @lachlandeer,

I haven't integrated all of the changes yet, but should finish doing so within the next 2-3 days. I'll let you know as soon as I am done.
