Assume you are the program chair of an employment program for students who did not graduate high school but
earned a GED (Government Equivalency Degree). You have limited resources and want to determine the factors
that ensure students succeed in their jobs. Explain to the program director how the tiebreaking experiment
might allow the program to uncover that information.
Develop a hypothetical example, not described in the textbook, that illustrates how and why to apply regressiondiscontinuity analysis. Discuss how the analysis helps to answer pertinent questions about the example.
Tiebreaking is an experiment in which the scare resources are randomly allocated to a small number
of persons who have identical situation or have the same level of needs. The example given in the
books is five students with the same identical sample score of tests with the GED certificate who
need to be admitted into the programs but the program only need three students. With the
limitation of resources, I will definitely considered the five students using other metrics used by the
programs like testing the students through the programs requirements in the school and determine
who is best suited for the program based on the results obtained through the testing score. This will
also ensure fairness and best practices so that all the candidates can compete through academics
capabilities. As the chair of the employment programs, I will explained to the directors that this is
best ways of selected the students based on the budget and the number of students that we may
admit each semester. The tiebreaking along with the programs requirements will ensure that every
student have the opportunity to compete and earned the spots through their own capabilities
instead of being giving the seats without any criteria being used. It is these academics testing that
the program that the schools may uncovered some of the students strengths and weaknesses to
help them in their academics journey.
