Estimation procedures for ordered categories usually assume that the estimated coefficients of independent variables do not vary between the categories (parallel-lines assumption). This view neglects possible heterogeneous effects of some explaining factors. This paper describes the use of an...

This article introduces the xtivdfreg command in Stata, which implements a general Instrumental Variables (IV) approach for estimating large panel data models with unobserved common factors or interactive effects, as developed by Norkute et al. (2020) and Cui et al. (2020a). The underlying idea...

pdynmc is an R-package for GMM estimation of linear dynamic panel data models that are based on linear and nonlinear moment conditions as proposed by Anderson and Hsiao (1982), Holtz-Eakin, Newey, and Rosen (1988), Arellano and Bover (1995), and Ahn and Schmidt (1995). This paper describes the...

Many studies estimate the impact of exposure to some quasi-experimental policy or event using a panel event study design. These models, as a generalized extension of 'difference-in-differences' or two-way fixed effect models, allow for dynamic lags and leads to the event of interest to be...

In this paper, we describe a computational implementation of the Synthetic difference-in-differences (SDID) estimator of Arkhangelsky et al. (2021) for Stata. Synthetic difference-in-differences can be used in a wide class of circumstances where treatment effects on some particular policy or...

Linear panel models and the "event-study plots" that often accompany them are popular tools for learning about policy effects. In this paper, we introduce the "xtevent" package for Stata, which enables the construction of event-study plots following the suggestions in Freyaldenhoven et al....

There is a huge interest in deriving and comparing socio-economic indicators across societal groups and domains. The indicators are usually derived from population surveys like the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) by direct estimation. Small sample sizes in the domains can limit the precision...
