Regression Discontinuity Design是近年來社會科學常用的因果推論方法，本文將利用幾個經濟學與會計學的研究案例，介紹Regression Discontinuity Design的理論架構與執行方式。

The regression discontinuity (RD) design has been one of the main tools in the empirical research. In this paper, I will introduce the basic concept of RD design and its application. In addition, I will provide a practical guidance for the implementation of an RD design.
