• Development, Discouragement, or Diversion? New Evidence on the Effects of College Remediation Policy (2015, methodology): “In any case, we see little visual evidence of any discontinuities in the four distributions presented in figure 1. For each distribution we run McCrary (2008) tests for discontinuities in the density and find none (results available upon request).”
• Increasing Success Rates in Developmental Math: The Complementary Role of Individual and Institutional Characteristics (2015, methodology): “Student Progression through the Developmental Math Sequence Recent literature on developmental education has examined success based on multiple levels of the remedial sequence (Bahr, 2009, 2012; Boatman & Long, 2010; Hagedorn & DuBray, 2010; Melguizo et al., 2013).”
