Panel Data Analysis Using Stata
Description
This 2-day course provides an introduction to the theory and practice of
panel-data analysis. After introducing the fixed-effects and random-effects
approaches to unobserved individual-level heterogeneity, the course covers
linear models with exogenous covariates, linear models with endogenous
variables, dynamic linear models, and some nonlinear models. A quick
introduction to the generalized method of moments estimation technique is
also included. The differences between the individual-specific and
population-averaged interpretations are discussed throughout the course.
Concepts are extensively illustrated using excercises and examples worked in
Stata.
