Dear Phil and John,

Thanks a lot for your responses. John, I will try to use your advice
although I am not familiar with those commands yet.
In the meantime, I've found a few recent articles on mediation for panel
data in order to understand the process better.

Thanks once again,

Best regards,

Forgot to mention, -cmp- is a userwritten command. For information on 
this see:

ssc d cmp

Best,
J.

Hi Kostas:

One solution would be with cmp, so you can cluster the standard errors, 
e.g.,

cmp (y = x z1 z2) (x = z1 z2 p1 p2), ind (1 1) cluster(firm)

(I'd double check that these estimates and the overid and identification 
stats with ivreg2)

Then you can do the Sobel test using the delta method with nlcom. 
Suppose you wanted to test the indirect effect of p1 on y through x. 
You'd do:

nlcom [x]p1*[y]x

How about the indirect effects both of p1 and p2 via x:

nlcom [x]p1*[y]x + [x]p2*[y]x

HTH,
John.
