Dear Stata users
Is anyone of you using (happen to know about) the xtabond (arellano-bond
linear, dynamic panel-data estimation) in Stata? I need your help very
much.
I want to have arellano-bond estimator in my panel data analysis. I know
the xtabond does the job, but, when I used it in my stata programming, it
always gave me the wrong message. For example:
. tsset prov time;
panel variable: prov (unbalanced)
time variable: time, 1978 to 1998, but with gaps
. xtabond g_lypcc pop100cr a_pol inst, lags(2);
timevar (time) may not contain missing values when option full is
specified
r(451);
I have no idea what's wrong and what I shold try next. Could you please
help me to figure it out? Your help would be highly appreciated!
Jing
