Binscatter is very popular in applied microeconomics. It provides a flexible, yet parsimonious way of visualizing and summarizing "big data" in regression settings, and it is often used for informal testing of substantive hypotheses such as linearity or monotonicity of the regression function....

Binned scatter plots are a powerful statistical tool for empirical work in the social, behavioral, and biomedical sciences. Available methods rely on a quantile-based partitioning estimator of the conditional mean regression function to primarily construct flexible yet interpretable...

This paper compares the finite sample performance of three non-parametric threshold estimators via the Monte Carlo method. Our results indicate that the finite sample performance of the three estimators is not robust to the position of the threshold level along the distribution of the threshold...
