Evidence from a Regression Discontinuity Approach † (2011, methodology): “14 and van der Klaauw (2002).(9) This strategy is deemed preferable to other non-experimental methods to control for the endogeneity of treatment because, under rather general conditions, it is possible to demonstrate that it is equivalent to a randomized experiment.”
