Summarize an r3d Object

Displays a summary of the local polynomial (or Fréchet) regression discontinuity model fitted by r3d. Includes basic information about the method, polynomial order, fuzzy vs. sharp design, sample size, bandwidth choice(s), and a numeric summary of the estimated distributional treatment effect \(\tau(q)\). If bootstrap inference was performed, also reports uniform confidence bands and test results.

# S3 method for class 'r3d'
summary(object, samples = c(0.25, 0.5, 0.75), ...)

Arguments

object

An r3d object produced by r3d.

samples

A numeric vector of quantile cut-points at which to display aggregated effects. Defaults to c(0.25,0.5,0.75). Used only for convenient partial summaries.

...

Additional arguments (not used).

Value

The object is returned invisibly. This function is primarily for printing.

Details

By default, prints:

  • The call used to create the r3d object,

  • Basic setup and bandwidth details,

  • A table of \(\tau(q)\) for all quantiles in object$q_grid,

  • If available, uniform confidence bands and test statistics from the bootstrap,

  • Optionally, average effects on sub-ranges of \(q\).
