Hi,

I run pooled OLS by using stata and I want to check the significance
of the coefficient.

I'm confuse about the P-value appear in the result.

Do I have to divide that P-value by 2 before I check the significance
of the coefficient?

Moreover, how can I check for autocorrelation in this pooled OLS model?

Here is my result,
