DESCRIPTION
Basic Econometrics (Econ 205). Please read Chapter 10 Panel data GH 5 due Monday RAP should be progressing … Please read Acemoglu , Johnson , Robinson, and Yared ( AER , 2008 ). Regression with Panel Data (SW Chapter 10). Notation for panel data. Panel data notation, ctd. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

Regression with Panel Data(SW Chapter 10)
2
Notation for panel data
3
Panel data notation, ctd.
4
Why are panel data useful?
5
Example of a panel data set:Traffic deaths and alcohol taxes
6
A panel data set looks like this …
7
U.S. traffic death data for 1982:
8
U.S. traffic death data for 1988
9
Why might there be more traffic deaths in states that have higher alcohol taxes?
10
Panel Data with 2 Time Periods

12
13
FatalityRate v. BeerTax: Ziliak & McCloskey (2004)?
14
Fixed Effects Regression
15
16
17
The regression lines for each state
18
19
Two ways to write the fixed effects model
20
Estimation of Fixed Effects Models
21
1. “n-1 binary regressors” OLS regression
22
2. “Entity-demeaned” OLS regression
23
Entity-demeaned OLS regression, ctd.
24
Entity-demeaned OLS regression, ctd.
25
Example: Traffic deaths and beer taxes in STATA
Example: A better way in STATA

• We should use xtreg in this case because those robust standard errors employ a small-sample correction designed for T fixed, n ∞, while areg designed for n fixed, T ∞ (Cameron & Trivedi 2009, p. 253)

By the way… how much do beer taxes vary?
