dear all,
i am using panel data; i have a question on gls and robust command. do you know what is the difference between using xtgls, p(hetero), that is groupwise heteroskedasticity, and using xtreg, re robust with or without the cluster() option?
In both case, the estimator used should be the GLS, but I do not understand what is the difference between using the two different commands (xtgls, p(h) or xtreg, re robust).
the coefficients given by the two approaches, indeed, results different, sometimes only slightly, but most of the time the difference quite substantial.
thanks a lot..
