Ringkasan	Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Design (Fuzzy RDD) is a quasi-experimental causal method that exploits a known score threshold — such as a test cutoff — to estimate the effect of a program or intervention when assignment is imperfect. Widely used in education research to evaluate summer school, remedial programs, scholarships, and class-size rules, it uses two-stage least squares to recover a local average treatment effect for students near the threshold.	Instrumental variables (IV) is an econometric method to estimate causal effects when treatment or exposure is not randomly assigned and confounding is severe or unmeasured. IV relies on a third variable (instrument) that influences treatment but does not directly affect the outcome, allowing researchers to isolate the causal effect from the noise of confounding. Developed extensively in econometrics (Angrist & Pischke, 1990s–2000s), IV methods are increasingly used in health economics and health services research to leverage natural experiments and policy changes.
