Podsumowanie	Robust Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Design estimates a local average treatment effect (LATE) at a threshold where crossing the cutoff raises — but does not guarantee — treatment receipt. Introduced by Calonico, Cattaneo, and Titiunik (2014), the robust framework applies bias-corrected local polynomial estimation with a robust variance estimator, correcting the coverage failures of conventional bandwidth-optimal inference in both the sharp and fuzzy cases.	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.
