Notations
Let us consider the following linear model
yit = αit + β0itxit + εit
8 i = 1, .., n, 8 t = 1, ..,T
αit is a scalar that varies across i and t.
βit = (β1it , β2it , ..., βKit )0 is a K � 1 vector of parameters that vary
across i and t,
xit = (x1it , ..., xKit )0 is a K � 1 vector of exogenous variables,
εit is an error term.

1. Speci�cation tests and analysis of covariance
Di¤erentrestrictions on the regression coe¢ cients can be tested:
1 the homogeneity of regression slope coe¢ cients
2 the homogeneity of regression intercept coe¢ cients
3 the time stability of parameters (slopes and constants). We will notconsider this issue here (since it is not speci�c to panel data models).

Fact (Time stability)
We assume that the parameters are constant over time (no structuralbreak, no regime switching, etc.), but can vary across individuals.

1. Speci�cation tests and analysis of covariance
Three types of restrictions can be imposed on this model.
1 Regression slope coe¢ cients are identical, and intercepts are not(model with individual / unobserved e¤ects).
yit = αi + β0xit + εit
2 Regression intercepts are the same, and slope coe¢ cients are not(unusual).
yit = α+ β0ixit + εit
3 Both slope and intercept coe¢ cients are the same (homogeneous /pooled panel).
yit = α+ β0xit + εit

Let us consider the general model
yit = αi + β0xit + εit
The hypothesis of common intercept and slope can be viewed as a set of(K + 1)(n� 1) linear restrictions:

H1a : 9 (i , j) 2 f1, ..., ng2 / βi 6= βj or αi 6= αj

1. Speci�cation tests and analysis of covariance
Should we use these speci�cation tests?
These heterogeneity / homogeneity tests of the parameters are validunder speci�c assumptions (normality of residuals).
More generally, the assumption of heterogeneity / homogeneity of theparameters (slope coe¢ cients and constants) has to be evaluatedthrough an economic reasoning.

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Especially in methodological papers, but also in applications, one oftensees a discussion about whether the individual e¤ects αi have to be treatedas a random e¤ect or a �xed e¤ect.

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
De�nition (Traditional approach)In the traditional approach to panel data models, αi is called a �randome¤ect�when it is treated as a random variable and a ��xed e¤ect�whenit is treated as a parameter to be estimated for each cross sectionobservation i .

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Discussion
For Wooldridge (2010), these discussions about whether the αi shouldbe treated as random variables or as parameters to be estimated arewrongheaded for microeconomic panels.
With a large number of random draws from the cross section, italmost always makes sense to treat the unobserved e¤ects, αi ,as random draws from the population, along with yit and xit .
This approach is certainly appropriate from an omitted variables orneglected heterogeneity perspective.

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Fact (Mundlak�s approach)
As suggested by Mundlak (1978), the key issue involving αi is whether ornot it is uncorrelated with the observed explanatory variables xit .

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Remarks
Actually, a stronger conditional mean independence assumption,
E (αi j xi1, ..., xiT ) = 0
is needed to fully justify statistical inference.
In applied papers, when αi is referred to an �individual randome¤ect,� then αi is probably being assumed to be uncorrelated with thexit .

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
De�nition (Fixed e¤ects)In microeconometric applications, the term ��xed e¤ect�does notusually mean that αi is being treated as nonrandom; rather, it means thatone is allowing for arbitrary correlation between the unobserved e¤ect αiand the observed explanatory variables xit .

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Remarks
Wooldridge (2010) avoids referring to αi as a random e¤ect or a �xede¤ect. Instead, he refers to αi as unobserved e¤ect, unobservedheterogeneity, and so on.
Nevertheless, later we will label two di¤erent estimation methods asrandom e¤ects estimation and �xed e¤ects estimation methods.
This terminology is so ingrained that it is pointless to try to change itnow.

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Fixed or random e¤ects?
The economic interpretation of the individual e¤ects generally allowsto show that they are probably correlated to the explanatoryvariables.
But, in case of doubt, it is possible to use a speci�cation test(Hausman�s test, 1978)

2. Linear unobserved e¤ects panel data models
Example (Production function)Let us consider the simple example of the Cobb Douglass productionfunction.
yit = βikit + γinit + αi + vit
In this case, αi corresponds to the unobserved e¤ect on TFP due toscountry speci�c omitted factor (climate, institutions, organization, etc..).In this case, we might expect that the the level of factors are positivilycorrelated with this component of TFP: the more a country is productive,the more it invests in capital for instance.

Example (Patents and R&D)
Hausman, Hall, and Griliches (1984) estimate (nonlinear) distributed lagmodels to study the relationship between patents awarded to a �rm andcurrent and past levels of R&D spending. A linear version of their model is:
patentsit = θt + zitγ+ δ0RDit + δ1RDit�1 + ..+ δ5RDit�5 + αi + vit
where RDit is spending on R&D for �rm i at time t and zit contains otherexplanatory variables. αi is a �rm heterogeneity term that may in�uencepatentsit and that may be correlated with current, past, and future R&Dexpenditures.

De�nition (LSDV estimator)
In this context, the OLS estimator bβ is called the least-squaresdummy-variable (LSDV) or Fixed E¤ect (FE) estimator, because theobserved values of the variable for the coe¢ cient αi takes the form ofdummy variables.

Remarks
1 The computational procedure for estimating the slope parameters inthis model does not require that the dummy variables for theindividual (and/or time) e¤ects actually be included in the matrix ofexplanatory variables.
2 We only need (1) the empirical means of time-series observationsseparately for each cross-sectional unit, (2) transform theobserved variables by subtracting out these means, and (3) then applythe least squares method to the transformed data.

TheoremUnder assumptions H2, when αi are treated as random, the LSDVestimator is unbiased and consistent either n, or T , or both tend toin�nity. However, whereas the LSDV is the BLUE under the assumptionthat αi are �xed constants, it is not the BLUE when αi are assumedrandom. The BLUE in the latter case is the Generalized-Least-Squares(GLS) estimator.

1 One is that the unobserved individual e¤ects αi are random drawsfrom a common population.
2 The explanatory variables are strictly exogenous: it implies that allthe components of the error terms are orthogonal to theregressors:

Mundlak (1978) criticized the random-e¤ects formulation on thegrounds that it neglects the correlation that may exist between thee¤ects αi and the explanatory variables xit .
There are reasons to believe that in many circumstances αi and xitare indeed correlated.

Mundlak�s speci�cation
The properties of various estimators we have discussed thus fardepend on the existence and extent of the relations between the X�sand the e¤ects αi .
Therefore, we have to consider the joint distribution of thesevariables. However, αi are unobservable.
Mundlak (1978) suggests to approximate E (αixit ) by a linearfunction.

5.2. Hausman�s speci�cation test
General idea of the Hausman�s lemma
Let us consider a general model
y = f (x ; β) + ε
and particular hypothesis H0 on the parameters, error terms, etc.
Let us consider two estimators of the K -vector β, denoted bβ1 and bβ2,both consistent under H0 and asymptotically normally distributed.
Under H0, the estimator bβ1 reachs the asymptotic Cramer�Raobound.
Under H1, the estimator bβ2 is biased and not consistent.C. Hurlin (University of Orléans) Advanced Econometrics II February 2018 172 / 258

5.2. Hausman�s speci�cation test
General idea of the Hausman�s lemma
By examing the distance between bβ1 and bβ2, it is possible to concludeabout H0 :
1 If the distance is small, H0 can not be rejected.
2 If the distance is large, H0 can be rejected.

5.2. Hausman�s speci�cation test
Lemma (Hausman, 1978)
Based on a sample of n observations, consider two estimates bβ1 and bβ2that are both consistent and asymptotically normally distributed, with bβ1attaining the asymptotic Cramer�Rao bound so that
pn�bβ1 � β
�is
asymptotically normally distributed with variance�covariance matrix V1.Suppose
pn�bβ2 � β
�is asymptotically normally distributed, with mean
zero and variance�covariance matrix V2. Let bq = bβ2 � bβ1. Then thelimiting distributions [under the null] of

5.2. Hausman�s speci�cation test
Speci�cation test for �xed versus random e¤ects
The Hausman�s test can also be interpreted as a speci�cation test between"�xed e¤ect methods" and "random e¤ect methods".
1 If the null is rejected, the correlation between individual e¤ects andthe explicative variables induces a bias in the GLS estimates. So, astandard LSDV approach (�xed e¤ects method) has to beprivilegiated.
2 If the null is not rejected, we can use a GLS estimator (random e¤ectmethod) and specify the individual e¤ects as random variables(random e¤ects model).

How to implement this test? Let us consider the standard model withrandom e¤ects (µ = 0):
yi = Xi β+ eαi + vi
1 Under H0 (and assumptions A2) we know that bβLSDV and bβGLS areconsistent and asymptotically normally distributed.
2 Under H0, bβGLS is BLUE and attains asymptotic Cramer�Rao bound.3 Under H1, bβGLS is not consistent.

5.2. Hausman�s speci�cation test
Remarks
1 When n is �xed and T tends to in�nity, bβGLS and bβMCG becomeidentical. However, it was shown by Ahn and Moon (2001) that thenumerator and denominator of H approach zero at the same speed.Therefore the ratio remains chi-square distributed. However, in thissituation the �xed-e¤ects and random-e¤ects models becomeindistinguishable for all practical purposes.
2 The more typical case in practice is that n is large relative to T , sothat di¤erences between the two estimators or two approaches areimportant problems.

6. Heterogeneous panel data models
Heterogeneous panel models with �xed coe¢ cients
1 If the covariances between di¤erent cross-sectional units are not zero,e.g. E (vivj 0) 6= 0, the GLS estimator of
�β01, ..., β
0n
�is more e¢ cient
than the single-equation estimator of i for each cross-sectional unit.Panel data is useful.
2 If Xi are identical for all i or E (vivi 0) = σ2i IT and E (vivj 0) = 0 fori 6= j , the GLS estimator for
�β01, ..., β
0n
�is the same as applying least
squares separately to the time-series observations of eachcross-sectional unit. Panel data is useless.

Random coe¢ cient model
1 The random-coe¢ cient speci�cation reduces the number ofparameters to be estimated substantially, while still allowing thecoe¢ cients to di¤er from unit to unit and/or from time to time.
2 Depending on the type of assumption about the parameter variation,it can be further classi�ed into one of two categories: stationary andnonstationary random-coe¢ cient models.

1 Under Swamy�s assumption, the simple regression of y on X will yieldan unbiased and consistent estimator of β if (1/nT )X 0X convergesto a nonzero constant matrix.
2 But the estimator is ine¢ cient, and the usual least-squares formulafor computing the variance�covariance matrix of the estimator isincorrect, often leading to misleading statistical inferences.

2 In this case, the prior distribution for the βi parameters is speci�edwith the value for β, ∆ and σ2i .

Bonhomme S. and E. Manresa (2015), Grouped Patterns of Heterogeneity inPanel Data, Econometrica, 83(3), 1147-1184
This paper introduces time-varying Grouped Patterns ofHeterogeneity in linear panel data models.
A distinctive feature of this approach is that group membership is leftunrestricted.
The authors estimate the parameters of the model using a �grouped�xed-e¤ects� estimator that minimizes a least-squares criterion withrespect to all possible groupings of the cross-sectional units.

6.2. Other hetorogeneous panel data models
A simple linear model with grouped patterns of heterogeneity takes thefollowing form
yit = x 0itθ + αgi t + vit
αgi ,t 2 A � R denotes a group-speci�c unobservable variable
The group membership variables gi 2 f1, ...,Gg and thegroup-speci�c time e¤ects αgi t are unrestricted.
Units in the same group share the same time pro�le αgt
The number of groups G is to be set or estimated by the researcher.
