When and how, then, can we learn about treatment effects away from the cutoff? This paper addresses this question within a multiple-cutoff RD framework. We begin by examining the plausibility of the constant bias assumption proposed by Cattaneo, Keele, Titiunik, and Vazquez-Bare (2021) through the lens of rational decision-making behavior. We argu…
