In this paper we examine the properties of a simple criterion-based, likelihood ratio type test of parameter restristions for standard GMM estimators in autoregressive panel data models. A comparison is made with recent test proposals based in the continuously-updated GMM criterion (Hansen,...

In this paper we examine the panel data estimation of dynamic models for count data that include correlated fixed effects and predetermined variables.

Instrumental variables analysis using genetic markers as instruments is now a widely used technique in epidemiology and biostatistics. As single markers tend to explain only a small proportion of phenotypical variation, there is increasing interest in using multiple genetic markers to obtain...

We compare the finite sample behaviour of various unit root tests for micro panels where the number of individuals is typically large, but the number of time periods is often very small. As in this case some econometric estimators do not identify the parameters of interest when the processes are...

We consider a number of unit root tests for micro panels where the number of individuals is typically large, but the number of time periods is often very small. As we discuss, the presence of a unit root is closely related to the identification of parameters of interest in this context....
