An intuitive introduction to Regression Discontinuity

When the circumstances are right, regression discontinuity can be an excellent way to extract causal estimates from observational data. In this video I give you a prototypical situation where RD is applicable and explain how it works. I also describe situations where the method fails and say a few words about fuzzy discontinuities. Intended audience: Folks who have had some exposure to linear regression models, but want to learn more statistical methods.
