The State of Applied Econometrics - Causality and Policy Evaluation (2016, neutral): “Another example of the use of placebo regressions is Rosenbaum et al. [1987] (see also Heckman and Hotz [1989], Imbens and Rubin [2015]).”
Regression-Discontinuity Analysis: A Survey of Recent Developments in Economics (2008, methodology): “An alternative approach considered by HTV and Porter (2003) is to estimate the limits in [4] using local polynomial regression (Fan, 1992).”
Robust Nonparametric Confidence Intervals for Regression‐Discontinuity Designs (2014, methodology): “) Following Hahn, Todd, and van der Klaauw (2001) and Porter (2003), we consider condence intervals based on the popular local-linear estimator of SRD, which is simply the di¤erence in intercepts of two rst-order local polynomial estimators, one from each side of the threshold.”
Including Covariates in the Regression Discontinuity Design (2018, methodology): “We therefore apply the method of Racine and Li (2004), which allows for both continuous and discrete regressors by means of product kernels and is implemented in the ‘np’package of Hayfield and Racine (2008).”

Evidence of a Local Incumbency Advantage (2011, background): “…long as there is some element of randomness to the score on the continuous dimension at the threshold (e.g., children do not have precise control over their IQ score), then the gap in outcomes really will represent the causal effect of the treatment even if the score that determines treatment…”
