Sintesi	Heterogeneous Treatment Effect RDD extends the classic regression discontinuity framework to detect and estimate how the causal effect of crossing an assignment cutoff varies across subgroups or along covariates. Rather than reporting a single local average treatment effect at the threshold, HTE-RDD maps how treatment impact differs by individual characteristics, enabling richer policy conclusions about who benefits most or least from a threshold-based intervention.	The Local Average Treatment Effect is an instrumental-variable estimand, introduced by Imbens and Angrist (1994) and formalised with Rubin (1996), that recovers the average treatment effect for the subpopulation of compliers — units whose treatment status is actually moved by the instrument. It is closely tied to compliance analysis.
