Stas,

First of all, thanks for your answers!

Yes, time effects are years, but taken through decades
as four periods.

Regarding the interaction term, I suspect this thing
should be easily done in STATA but not sure which way
is correct. The term Time_effect*Fixed_Effect
introduces a structural break into the fixed effect
for the time period considered. Specifically, what I
want to do is the following:

Say, time1=1, time=1960s, 0 else

FE_UK=1, country=United Kingdom, 0 else

Then, time1*FE_UK=1, time=1960s in United Kingdom

So, in the regression we have terms:

....+ betta0*FE_UK + betta1*Time1*FE_UK

where betta0 is the estimate for the strength of FE in
all periods except for 1960s and betta1 is the
estimate for FE strength in 1960s.

I'm thinking of introducing dummies to each of the 140
countries and 4 time points and just multiply them
out, and run the regression. Can I do it? If no, why?

Thanks in advance!

Baktigul
