SUMMARY:SEMINAR CANCELED : Christoph ROTHE (University of Mannheim) - Bounds on Treatment Effects in Regression Discontinuity Designs under Manipulation of the Running Variable\, with an Application to Unemployment Insurance in Brazil
DESCRIPTION:SEMINAR CANCELED\nThe Microeconometrics Seminar: Every Tuesday at 12:00 pm.\nTime: 12:00 – 13:15\nDate: 26th of September 2017\nPlace: Room 3001 (Ensae).\nChristoph ROTHE (University of Mannheim) – Bounds on Treatment Effects in Regression Discontinuity Designs under Manipulation of the Running Variable\, with an Application to Unemployment Insurance in Brazil \nAbstract : A key assumption in regression discontinuity analysis is that units cannot affect the value of their running variable through strategic behavior\, or manipulation\, in a way that leads to sorting on unobservable characteristics around the cutoff. Standard identification arguments break down if this condition is violated. This paper shows that treatment effects remain partially identified under weak assumptions on individuals’ behavior in this case. We derive sharp bounds on causal parameters for both sharp and fuzzy designs\, and show how additional structure can be used to further narrow the bounds. We use our methods to study the disincentive effect of unemployment insurance on (formal) reemployment in Brazil\, where we find evidence of manipulation at an eligibility cutoff. Our bounds remain informative\, despite the fact that manipulation has a sizable effect on our estimates of causal parameters.\nAnd the pdf can found here: http://christophrothe.net/papers/rdmanipulation_nov2016.pdf\nCe séminaire est organisé par :\nArne UHLENDORFF (Laboratoire de Microéconométrie-CREST)\nLaurent DAVEZIES (Laboratoire de Microéconométrie-CREST)\n
