Hello,

I was wondering if anybody has experience training groups in Stata
programming. Any help is appreciated.

As you have panel i.e. time series data,
getting a handle on the significance
of correlations between variables would
seem to require either an implausible
assumption of independence or some
sort of specification of
dependence structure. Which are you
thinking of, or I am missing your point?
