- This table shows the RD estimates of employment outcomes at the age of 25 (per row) and different bandwidth selection procedures (per column). The outcomes are as follows: being employed, having graduated from college and being employed, and log of earnings. The first panel on the left has the results for candidates whose parents have no college degree and at least one has no high school education. The second panel in the center has the results for candidates from households that receive less than five minimum wages (<5 MWs). The third panel on the right has the results for candidates from households that receive less than ten minimum wages (<10 MWs) and where parents have no college degree and at least one has no high school education. The CCT procedure is proposed by Calonico et al. (2014). The IW procedure is proposed by Imbens and Kalyanaraman (2012). All functions are estimated using a triangular kernel. Data come from applications for undergraduate programs at UFPE from 2002 to 2005. The sample is restricted to those who graduated from high school in the same year and were under 18.5 years old. Ï„ is the robust RD estimate
- ** and * represent statistical significance at the 5 and 10 % levels, respectively
