Figure TB 10-14

-Consider the figure above,illustrating the regression discontinuity design.What can you conclude?
A)The treatment had an effect,as shown by the discontinuity at the cutoff.
B)There appears to be a selection effect,because the groups differed before the treatment began.
C)The slopes of the regression lines appear similar, so there is no treatment effect.
D)The discontinuity suggests the presence of a maturation effect.
