Regression discontinuity is a popular tool for analyzing economic policies or treatment interventions. This research extends the classic static RD model to a dynamic framework, where observations are eligible for repeated RD events and, therefore, treatments. Such dynamics often complicate the...

We propose a new specification test for assessing the validity of fuzzy regression discontinuity designs (FRD‐validity). We derive a new set of testable implications, characterized by a set of inequality restrictions on the joint distribution of observed outcomes and treatment status at the...

We propose a new specification test to assess the validity of the judge leniency design. We characterize a set of sharp testable implications, which exploit all the relevant information in the observed data distribution to detect violations of the judge leniency design assumptions. The proposed...
