Hi There,

I am an undergraduate student in my final year and I am quite new to Stata, and indeed, to a lot of the techniques and models that can be used in Stata. So my apologies if this question may seem quite simple but I can't seem to find an explanation anywhere.

I have estimated (several) sub-samples for a fixed effects model using panel data. However, in order to interpret my results, I'm slightly confused about one of the statistics given - corr(u_i, Xb). Is there any chance anyone could enlighten me, as I can only guess what it means and would rather know for sure when writing up my results. I've included one of my regression results below for reference to what I'm asking about. Any comments would be appreciated!

Samantha


Fixed-effects (within) regression Number of obs = 560
Group variable (i): country Number of groups = 112

R-sq: within = 0.6385 Obs per group: min = 5
between = 0.9909 avg = 5.0
overall = 0.9694 max = 5

F(3,445) = 62.01
corr(u_i, Xb) = 0.9249 Prob > F = 0.0000
