Regression Discontinuity Designs (RDDs) have exploded in recent years as a quasi-experimental research design in recent years as a means of approaching causal inference in observational settings. What do you need to know to be a good consumer and producer of RDDs? In this workshop, I will discuss the theoretical underpinnings of RDDs, discuss their strengths and weaknesses, provide tools for executing a RDD, and outline recent research that had used RDDs. RSVP semra.sevi@umontreal.ca by February 17. 

Organisé par la Chaire de recherche en études électorales et la Chaire de recherche du Canada en démocratie électorale.
