Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Robust Dynamic Space–time Panel Data Models Using εε-contamination: An Application to Crop Yields and Climate Change -- Chapter 3. Unbiased Estimation of the OLS Covariance Matrix When the Errors are Clustered -- Chapter 4. Refined GMM Estimators for...

This is the first paper in a series of two that synthesizes, compares, and extends methods for causal inference with longitudinal panel data in a structural equation modeling (SEM) framework. Starting with a cross-lagged approach, this paper builds a general cross-lagged panel model (GCLM) with...
