pcce: Common Correlated Effects estimators

Description

Common Correlated Effects Mean Groups (CCEMG) and Pooled (CCEP) estimators for panel data with common factors (balanced or unbalanced)

Usage

pcce(formula, data, subset, na.action, model=c("mg", "p"), index = NULL, trend = FALSE, ...)
"summary"(object, ...)
"print"(x,digits = max(3, getOption("digits") -
2), width = getOption("width"), ...)

Arguments

a symbolic description of the model to be estimated,

object, x

an object of class pcce,

data

a data.frame,

subset

see lm,

na.action

see lm,

model

one of c("mg","p"), selects Mean Groups vs. Pooled CCE model,

index

the indexes, see pdata.frame,

trend

logical specifying whether an individual-specific trend has to be included,

...

further arguments.

Value

An object of class c("pcce","panelmodel") containing:

Details

pcce is a function for the estimation of linear panel models by the Common Correlated Effects Mean Groups or Pooled estimator, consistent under the hypothesis of unobserved common factors and idiosyncratic factor loadings; CCE estimators works by augmenting the model by cross-sectional averages of the dependent variable and regressors in order to account for the common factors, and adding individual intercepts and possibly trends.
