Five lessons for applied researchers from twenty years of common correlated effects estimation
共同相关效应估计二十年:给应用研究者的五条经验
This article distills the vast literature on Common Correlated Effects (CCE), initiated by the seminal contribution of Pesaran (2006), into five practical lessons. We provide a concise overview of the CCE framework and describe the reasons for its popularity in empirical (macro-) panel data research. The lessons we draw focus on aspects that have received substantial methodological attention, but remain underappreciated in empirical work.
