Optimal Bandwidth Selection for the Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Estimator

Yoichi Arai and Hidehiko Ichimura

No 15-13, GRIPS Discussion Papers from National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies

Abstract: A new bandwidth selection method for the fuzzy regression discontinuity estimator is proposed. The method chooses two bandwidths simultaneously, one for each side of the cut-off point by using a criterion based on the estimated asymptotic mean square error taking into account a second-order bias term. A simulation study demonstrates the usefulness of the proposed method.
