Thanks to Kit Baum, a new routine for testing overidentifying
restrictions after panel data estimation is available on SSC.
-xtoverid- provides overid tests after IV estimations on panel data.  It
is compatible with fixed effects, random effects, between, and first
differences estimation (via -xtivreg- or -xtivreg2-), and with
Hausman-Taylor estimation (via -xthtaylor-).  Heteroskedastic- and
cluster-robust overid stats are supported.
-xtoverid- requires Stata 8.2 and -ivreg2- by Baum-Schaffer-Stillman,
also available from SSC.
-xtoverid- builds on and greatly extends the previously circulated
-overidxt-.  Users of the latter will probably want to install the new
program.
To install, -findit xtoverid- from within Stata and follow the links.
