title: 'rddensity: Manipulation Testing Based on Density Discontinuity'
version: '3.0'
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.rddensity
abstract: 'Density discontinuity testing (a.k.a. manipulation testing) is commonly
  employed in regression discontinuity designs and other program evaluation settings
  to detect perfect self-selection (manipulation) around a cutoff where treatment/policy
  assignment changes. This package implements manipulation testing procedures using
  local polynomial density estimators: rddensity() constructs test statistics and
  p-values given a prespecified cutoff, rdbwdensity() performs data-driven bandwidth
  selection, and rdplotdensity() constructs density plots.'
