Questions and Answers

What is the difference between pooling and panel data?

Pooling assumes no heterogeneity in the data, while panel data contains both time series and cross-sectional data.

Why is panel data useful in examining relationships between variables?

Panel data allows for examining how variables and their relationships change over time.

How does panel data help remove omitted variable bias in regression results?

Panel data can remove the impact of omitted variable bias in regression results by accounting for unobserved entity-specific or time-specific variables.

What is the purpose of LSDV in panel data analysis?

<p>LSDV is used to explain the effect of each individual cross-sectional unit observed.</p> Signup and view all the answers

When should fixed effects models be used in panel data analysis?

<p>Fixed effects models should be used when there is heterogeneity that affects y but does not vary over time.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What is the difference between entity-fixed and time-fixed models?

<p>Entity-fixed models allow for different intercepts for each cross-sectional unit, while time-fixed models allow for intercepts that change with time but not cross-sectionally.</p> Signup and view all the answers
