We introduce the Stata (and R) package rdmulti, which includes three commands (rdmc, rdmcplot, rdms) for analyzing Regression Discontinuity (RD) designs with multiple cutoffs or multiple scores. The command rdmc applies to non-cummulative and cummulative multi-cutoff RD settings. It calculates pooled and cutoff-specific RD treatment effects, and provides robust bias-corrected inference procedures. Post estimation and inference is allowed. The command rdmcplot offers RD plots for multi-cutoff settings. Finally, the command rdms concerns multi-score settings, covering in particular cumulative cutoffs and two running variables contexts. It also calculates pooled and cutoff-specific RD treatment effects, provides robust bias-corrected inference procedures, and allows for post-estimation estimation and inference. These commands employ the Stata (and R) package rdrobust for plotting, estimation, and inference. Companion R functions with the same syntax and capabilities are provided.
