similar to: How can I extract part of the data in a panel dataset?

Dear R users, I have an unbalanced panel with an average of I=100 individuals and a total of T=1370 time intervals, i.e. T>>I. So far, I have been using the plm package. I wish to estimate a FE model like: res<-plm(x~c+v, data=pdata_frame, effect="twoways", model="within", na.action=na.omit) ?where c varies over i and t, and v represents an exogenous impact on x

Hi list, has anyone succeeded in using pgmm() on any dataset besides Arellano/Bond's EmplUK, as shown in the vignette? Whatever I try, I eventually get a runtime error because of a singular matrix at various points in pgmm.diff() (which gets called by pgmm()). For example, when estimating a "dynamic" version of the Grunfeld data: data(Grunfeld, package="Ecdat") grun

Dear List, I am using the output of a ML estimation on a random effects model with first-order autocorrelation to make a further conditional test. My model is much like this (which reproduces the method on the famous Grunfeld data, for the econometricians out there it is Table 5.2 in Baltagi): library(Ecdat) library(nlme) data(Grunfeld)

I am working with panel data. I am using the plm package to do this. I would like to do be able to adjust for autocorrelation, as one does with glm models and correlation structures (eg corr=corARMA(q=4)) . In particular, I want to employ MA(4) error structure. Is there a way of doing this with the plm package? (Note: I do not really want to use the pggls function for various

Dear R users I get different F-statistic results for a "within" model, when using "time" or "twoways" effects in plm() [1] and when manually specifying the time control dummies [2]. [1] vignette("plm") [2] http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Farnsworth-EconometricsInR.pdf Two examples below: library("AER") data("Grunfeld", package =

Hi everyone and thank you for the help you could give me. My data is in a spreadsheet. The 1st column identifies the firm (with the fiscal number), the columns 2 to 11 have the variable value for 11 years. I have many variables (files like this). Each file has about 40.000 firms (rows). I transformed all the files in txt files. The data is a panel data, like this: firm revenu2007 revenue2006

Dear all I am trying to fit Variable Coefficients Models on Unbalanced Panel Data. I managed to fit such models on balanced panel data (the example from the "plm" vignette), but I failed to do so on my real, unbalanced panel data. I can reproduce the error on a modified example from the vignette: > require(plm) > data("Hedonic") > Hed <- pvcm(mv ~ crim + zn + indus

Dear all, I'm still learning and transitioning from SPSS to R (1.9.0, winXP) and today I have data from two repeated measures experiments. For each of the subjects I've averaged for two within-SS factors (2 x 2, 4 means per subjects). One experiment had 16 subjects, the other one 25 (between-SS factor exp). So I have something like: avg.cond <- read.table('data.txt') #
