We propose a new specification test for assessing the validity of fuzzy regression discontinuity designs (FRD‐validity). We derive a new set of testable implications, characterized by a set of inequality restrictions on the joint distribution of observed outcomes and treatment status at the...

In many set identified models, it is difficult to obtain a tractable characterization of the identified set, therefore, empirical works often construct confidence region based on an outer set of the identified set. Because an outer set is always a superset of the identified set, this practice is...
