About this simulation
Apply sharp regression discontinuity design to estimate the causal effect of the Costaria National Merit Scholarship at the 75-point ENAU cutoff. Diagnose naive bias, implement local linear regression with a data-driven bandwidth, and pass the modern referee checklist (McCrary 2008 density test, covariate balance, bandwidth and polynomial-order sensitivity, CCT 2014 robust inference).
Closes the four-method credibility-revolution toolkit (Track 2C: FE, IV, DiD, RDD).
Who it is for
An advanced simulation for participants used to working with the main frameworks and trade-offs of the subject, designed for executive education and experienced professionals.
How a session runs
- The instructor creates a session from the Eureka dashboard and invites the participants.
- Participants play 4 rounds. In each one they submit their decisions and the simulation calculates the results.
- The simulation can be run in English, Español.
- The instructor follows each participant's progress and results from the dashboard, and uses the class results for the debrief.
