随机效应分布未指定时混合效应模型的条件推断函数AI 解读

In longitudinal studies, mixed-effects models are important for addressing subject-specific effects. However, most existing approaches assume a normal distribution for the random effects, and this could affect the bias and efficiency of the fixed-effects estimator. Even in cases where the estimation of the fixed effects is robust with a misspecified distribution of the random effects, the estimation of the random effects could be invalid. We propose a new approach to…

允许截面依赖的面板数据广义非线性工具变量单位根检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a unit root test for panel data with cross-sectional dependence. The test generalizes the nonlinear IV unit root test of Chang (2002) to the case where there exist some common factors in panels. The main idea is to eliminate the cross-sectional dependence through the method of principal components as in Bai and Ng (2004) and then apply Chang's test to the treated data. Under certain conditions, the proposed test is consistent and has a standard normal…
