Efficient estimation with panel data: An empirical comparison of instrumental variables estimators
面板数据的有效估计:工具变量估计量的经验比较
Abstract Hausman and Taylor (1981) proposed an efficient instrumental variables estimator for panel data regression models where the individual effects may be correlated with some of the regressors. Amemiya and MacCurdy (1986) and Breusch, Mizon, and Schmidt (1986) have suggested instrumental variables estimators that are potentially more efficient than the Hausman and Taylor estimator. We address the empirical question of how large these efficiency gains might be. In our…
