Profile Likelihood Estimation of Partially Linear Panel Data Models with Fixed Effects∗

We consider consistent estimation of partially linear panel data models with fixed effects. We propose profile-likelihood-based estimators for both the parametric and nonparametric components in the models and establish convergence rates and asymptotic normality for both estimators.

Spatial Correlation Testing for Errors in Panel Data Regression Model

To investigate the spatial error correlation in panel regression models, various statistical hypothesizes and testings have been proposed. This paper, within introduction to spatial panel data regression model, existence of spatial error correlation and random effects is investigated by a joint Lagrange Multiplier test, which simultaneously tests their existence. For this purpose, joint Lagrang...

Testing for Sphericity in a Fixed E¤ects Panel Data Model

This paper proposes a test for the null of sphericity in a …xed e¤ects panel data model. It uses the Random Matrix Theory based approach of Ledoit and Wolf (2002) to test for the null of sphericity of the error terms in a …xed e¤ects panel model with a large number of cross-sectional units and time series observations. Since the errors are unobservable, the residuals from the …xed e¤ects regres...

Series Estimation of Partially Linear Panel Data Models with Fixed Effects∗

This paper considers the problem of estimating a partially linear semiparametric fixed effects panel data model with possible endogeneity. Using the series method, we establish the root N normality result for the estimator of the parametric component, and we show that the unknown function can be consistently estimated at the standard nonparametric rate.

Estimation of Partially Linear Panel Data Models with Fixed Effects

This paper considers the problem of estimating a partially linear semipara-metric fixed effects panel data model with possible endogeneity. Using the series method, we establish the root N normality result for the estimator of the parametric component, and we show that the unknown function can be consistently estimated at the standard nonparametric rate. c 2002 Peking University Press
