Presentation Transcript

  1. Econometric Analysis of Panel Data • Hypothesis Testing • Specification Tests • Fixed Effects vs. Random Effects • Heteroscedasticity • Autocorrelation • Serial Autocorrelation • Spatial Autocorrelation • More on Autocorrelation

  2. Hypothesis Testing • Heteroscedasticity • Serial Correlation • Spatial Correlation

  3. Hypothesis Testing • Heteroscedasticity

  4. Hypothesis TestingTest for Homoscedasticity • If su2=0 (constant effects or pooled model), then • LM Test (Breusch and Pagan, 1980)

  5. Hypothesis TestingTest for Homoscedasticity • If su2>0 (random effects), then • LM Tests (Baltagi, Bresson, and Pirott, 2006)

  6. Hypothesis TestingTest for Homoscedasticity • Marginal LM Test • See, Montes-Rojas and Sosa-Escudero (2011)

  7. Hypothesis Testing Test for Homoscedasticity • Marginal LM Test • Joint LM Test • Sum of the above two marginal test statistics (approximately) • See, Montes-Rojas and Sosa-Escudero (2011)

  8. Hypothesis Testing Testing for Homoscedasticity • References • Batagi, B.H., G. Bresson, and A. Priotte, Joint LM Test for Homoscedasticity in a One-Way Error Component Model, Journal of Econometrics, 134, 2006, 401-417. • Breusch, T. and A. Pagan, “A Simple Test of Heteroscedasticity and Random Coefficient Variations,” Econometrica, 47, 1979, 1287-1294. • Montes-Rojas, G. and W. Sosa-Escudero, Robust Tests for Heteroscedasticity in the One-Way Error Components Model, Journal of Econometrics, 2011, forthcoming.

  9. Hypothesis Testing • Serial Correlation AR(1) in a Random Effects Model • LM Test for Serial Correlation and Random Effects

  10. Hypothesis TestingTest for Serial Correlation • LM Test Statistics: NotationsBased on OLS residuals of the restricted model (i.e. pooled model with no serial correlation)

  11. Hypothesis TestingTest for Serial Correlation • Marginal LM Test Statistic for a Pooled Model • See Breusch and Pagan (1980) • Marginal LM Test Statistic for Serial Correlation • See Breusch and Godfrey (1981)

  12. Hypothesis TestingTest for Serial Correlation • Robust LM Test Statistic • See Baltagi and Li (1995)

  13. Hypothesis TestingTest for Serial Correlation • Joint LM Test Statistic for Pooled Model with Serial Correlation • See Baltagi and Li (1995)

  14. Hypothesis TestingTest for Serial Correlation • LM Test Statistic for a Fixed Effects Model • See Baltagi, Econometric Analysis of Panel Data (2008)

Pagan, “A Simple Test of Heteroscedasticity and Random Coefficient Variations,” Econometrica, 47, 1979, 1287-1294. • Breusch, T. and A.

  16. Autocorrelation • AR(1) • Assumptions

  17. Autocorrelation • AR(1) Model Estimation (Paris-Winsten) • Begin with r=0, estimate the model • Transform variables according

  18. Autocorrelation • Estimate the transformed model • Iterate until converges

  19. Autocorrelation Notational Complexity with time lags in unbalanced panel data (Unbalanced unequal space panel data)

  20. Autocorrelation • Hypothesis Testing • Modified Durbin-Watson Test Statistic (Bhargava, Franzini, Narendranathan, 1982) • LBI Test Statistic (Baltagi-Wu, 1999) • For unbalanced unequal spaced panel data

  21. Example: Investment Demand • Grunfeld and Griliches [1960] • i = 10 firms: GM, CH, GE, WE, US, AF, DM, GY, UN, IBM; t = 20 years: 1935-1954 • Iit = Gross investment • Fit = Market value • Cit = Value of the stock of plant and equipment
