Hi. Thank you for this video. I have to apply RDD in a real life problem and I am not able to understand how to do it. Our intervention is a training program at district level which will help correct and more identification of a particular disease. This disease is defined by a value which is less than a particular no. Now my intervention will focus only on those individuals in the city who have value below that no and above that no will become our control. We will collect data on both baseline and endline for all invididuals in the district. I just know what my cut off point is. Rest is unclear.

3:57 How does using the distance to cut off (x' = x - x0), as opposed to x, ensure that the two lines connect to each other if there's no effect?

Excellent video! One question. What about splitting the data in to groups at the discontinuity and running e.g. anova or t test? Would that not allow for a similar interpretation?
