rdhte: Heterogeneous Treatment Effects in Regression Discontinuity Designs

Understanding heterogeneous causal effects based on pretreatment covariates is a crucial step in modern empirical work in data science. Building on the recent developments in Calonico et al (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2503.13696>, this package provides tools for estimation and inference of heterogeneous treatment effects in Regression Discontinuity (RD) Designs. The package includes two main commands: 'rdhte' to conduct estimation and robust bias-corrected inference for conditional RD treatment effects (given choice of bandwidth parameter); 'rdbwhte', which implements automatic bandwidth selection methods; and 'rdhte_lincom' to test linear combinations of parameters.
