JMP thread đź‘‹
A growing body of research estimates child penalties.
I formalize the underlying identification framework, discuss new problems, and present solutions.

Left out several discussions, for example
- Triple differences and counterfactual gender inequality
- Validation tests when control groups change post treatment
- Aggregation across multiple treatment groups

Takeaway: My paper suggests that previous child penalties estimates can be severely biased due to identification issues, and that these issues are easily remedied.

Hey đź‘‹ #econtwitter new version of the RD-DID paper - arxiv.org/abs/2408.05847
Some of whats new:
- Iden. and est. of composition effects
- Different SE under cross section / panel w. constant or time-varying running variables
- A package (my first!)
Cheers!

📢@DanielNevo and I have a new WP out📢
In the paper, we present a general framework for identification in RD designs when continuity is violated using multiple time period data, which we term RD-DID

For an application, we revisit Grembi et al. (2016)
We discuss an equivalence testing approach to test RD-DID assumptions (and reject constant discon.)
And show that omitting treatment switchers causes a drop in running variable density, resembling a ''donut hole'' RD

Thats a wrap đź‘Ź, thanks for everyone who helped with this along the way. Hopefully this paper will provide guidelines and tools for researchers analyzing an RD design with violations of continuity
