Note: Each cell in the table represents a separate estimate or regression. Panel A reports the RD results estimating the impact of the Huai River Policy on work. Panel B reports the fuzzy RD results estimating the impact of 10 μg/m3 of PM10 on work, treating distance from the Huai River as the forcing variable and PM10 as the treating variable, with the Huai River representing a “fuzzy” discontinuity in the level of air pollution exposure. Robust standard errors in parentheses are clustered at the county level. Controls include weather information and sociodemographic variables defined in Table 1. * Significant at 10%; ** significant at 5%; *** significant at 1%.
