演講摘要 : We characterize the set of sharp testable implications of the key identification conditions for identification of heterogeneous treatment effect in Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity (FRD) design, for which we propose tests that are uniformly valid under a class of distributions, are consistent against all fix alternatives, and have non-trivial power against local alternatives. Monte Carlo simulations show that our tests have good finite sample performance.
