# kaal:claim:2816408-018

**Claim.** The sharp and fuzzy regression discontinuity approaches yield results of only minor difference in this setting because the denominator of the fuzzy estimator is very close to one, meaning treatment take up at the threshold is nearly deterministic.

**Type.** empirical  **Support.** evidenced

**Holds when.**

- this sample and threshold
- denominator close to 1

**Source quote.**

> However, because the denominator is very close to 1 in our investigation, empirical results show that the differences between the SRD and the FRD approach are of minor importance.
