similar to: question regarding panel data analysis

Hello. Not an easy question at all, and it has little to do with software, alas! Veeeeeery loosely speaking: if the homogeneity hypothesis is rejected, then, depending on data availability, you may still be able to treat the data like a panel by: a) ignoring the results of the poolability test b) allowing the coefficients to vary. Of course, a) requires some courage while b) requires more

Good day R-listers, I'm currently working on a panel data analysis (N=17, T=5), in order to check for the spurious regression problem, i have to ?test for stationarity but i've read somewhere ?that i needn't to test for it as ?my T<10 , what do you think? if yes ?is there any other test ?i have to ?perform in such case (a kind of cointegration test for small T?) Any hint would be

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

Hi All, I am doing econometric modeling of panel data (fixed effects). We currently use Eviews to do this, but I have discovered a bug in Eviews 7 and am exploring the use of R to build panel data models / longitudinal data models. I looked at the plm package but do not see how I can incorporate AR terms in the model using the plm package. I have an Eviews model with two AR terms, AR(1) and

Good day R-listers, My question is more a statistical question than an R related question, so please bear with me i'm currently applying the chow test of poolability in fact i'm working with panel N=17 T=5 , and my model looks like this : Yit= a0+B1X1+B2X2+B3X3+B4X4+eit My question is the following when i'm Testing for the equality of the coefficients of the unpooled data (the

Hello Cecilia, nice hearing from you again. I must restate a couple of my old hints, though ;^) 1) please always put the authors c/c, as we are not guaranteed to browse through the r-help every day 2) please provide reproducible examples. As example(pooltest) keeps working fine, as do some other cases I tried (Grunfeld data etc.), I don't know what the problem is but evidently your data are

dear readers---I struggled with how to do nice fixed-effects regressions in large economic samples for a while. Eventually, I realized that nlme is not really what I needed (too complex), and all I really wanted is the plm package. so, I thought I would share a quick example. ################ sample code to show fixed-effects models? in R # create a sample panel data set with firms and years

Hello, I am using {plm} to estimate panel models. I want to estimate a model that includes fixed effects for time and individual, but has a random individual effect for the coefficient on the independent variable. That is, I would like to estimate the model: Y_it = a_i + a_t + B_i * X_it + e_it Where i denotes individuals, t denotes time, X is my independent variable, and B (beta) is the

Hello, I am working on a data set (already as a plm.data object) located here: http://econsteve.com/arch/plmWithDensity.Robj With the following R session: > library(plm) ... >load("plmWithDensity.Robj") >model <- plm(RATE ~ density08, data=plmWithDensity) Error: subscript out of bounds I am not understanding the "subscript out of bounds" error, as this is a

Hello to all on the list, I'm trying to estimate a fixed effects model from a large (unbalanced) panel data set. I have no problems when using only an individual effect or only a time effect, but I get an error message when I try for a "twoways" effect. Here is some of the code: paneldata27 is the entire panel data set: > dim(paneldata27) [1] 1178831 8 >

Hello, although I searched for a solution related to my problem I didn?t find one, yet. My skills in R aren?t very large, however. For my Diploma thesis I need to run a GMM estimation on a dynamic panel model using the "pgmm" - function in the plm-Package. The model I want to estimate is: "Y(t) = Y(t-1) + X1(t) + X2(t) + X3(t)" . There are no "normal" instruments

Dear R users, I have a question here library(AER) library(plm) library(sandwich) ## take the following data data("Gasoline", package="plm") Gasoline$f.year=as.factor(Gasoline$year) Now I run the following regression rhs <- "-1 + f.year + lincomep+lrpmg+lcarpcap" m1<- lm(as.formula(paste("lgaspcar ~", rhs)), data=Gasoline) ###Now I want to find the

Hello Everyone (Quick) question: Does anyone know a package/command or simply a way of creating a table of different panel data estimations (estimated using /*plm()*/ ) just as *mtable()* does for models estimated with /*lm()*/? It seems *mtable* (and *apsrtable* equally) only support /*lm*/ and some other classes but unfortunately not /*plm*/. I am pretty sure others must have encountered this

Hi,R 2.15.2 plm() function on Windows 7 when i perform a plm regression, i can't manage to obtain the intercept, but I need it.it gives me just the beta coefficient. my formula: fixed <- plm(deltaS ~ L1.deltaS + L2.deltaS, data=Mody_R, index=c("country_id", "date"), model="within") my output: Coefficients : Estimate Std. Error t-value Pr(>|t|)

Hi R-helpers, I have two questions I hope you could help me with them: In the plm package how can I calculate the R2 within, R2 between and R2 overall? Is there any special reason to not display these values? When using first differences do I need to have some special care with dummies (both year dummies and industry dummies)? (A friend who works with Stata told me that there is

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 =

Dear All, I'm trying to use waldtest to test poolability (parameter stability) between two logistic regressions. Because I need to use robust standard errors (using sandwich), I cannot use anova. anova has no problems running the test, but waldtest does, indipendently of specifying vcov or not. waldtest does not appear to see that my models are nested. H0 in my case is the the vector of

Hi, I would like to estimate a panel model (small N large T, fixed effects), but would need "robust" standard errors for that. In particular, I am worried about potential serial correlation for a given individual (not so much about correlation in the cross section). >From the documentation, it looks as if the vcovHC that comes with plm does not seem to do autocorrelation, and the

Hi! I am quite a new user of R. I wanted to ask if there was some package for dynamic panel analysis (with Arneallo-Bond Method) like stata. PLM is for panel analysis but not for dynamic. Best regards, Tanveer
