Common Correlated Effects Pooled estimator

Description

Common Corrleated Effects Pooled (CCEP) estimator for panel data with common factors (balanced or unbalanced)

Usage

pccep(formula, data, subset, na.action,
 residuals = c("standard", "cce","ccemg"),
 index = NULL, trend = FALSE, ...)
## S3 method for class 'pccep'
summary(object, ...)
## S3 method for class 'summary.pccep'
print(x,digits = max(3, getOption("digits") -
2), width = getOption("width"),...)

Arguments

formula

a symbolic description of the model to be estimated,

object, x

an object of class pccep,

data

a data.frame,

subset

see lm,

na.action

see lm,

residuals

one of c("standard", "cce","ccemg"), allows for returning different inds of residuals for diagnostic purposes,

index

the indexes, see plm.data,

trend

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

digits

digits,

width

the maximum length of the lines in the print output,

...

further arguments.

Details

pccep is a function for the estimation of linear panel models by the Common Correlated Effects Pooled estimator, consistent under the hypothesis of unobserved common factors and idiosyncratic factor loadings; the CCEP estimator 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.

Value

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

coefficients

the vector of coefficients,

residuals

the vector of residuals,

fitted.values

the vector of fitted.values,

vcov

the covariance matrix of the coefficients,

df.residual

degrees of freedom of the residuals,

model

a data.frame containing the variables used for the estimation,

call

the call,

sigma

always NULL, sigma is here only for conmpatibility reasons (to allow using the same summary and print methods as pggls),

indcoef

the matrix of individual coefficients from separate time series regressions.
