As soon as I see -xt- in a command, I think multple populations, and as
soon as there are multiple populations standardization becomes
non-trivial. You could standardize within each population. But aren't
you doing a fixed effects model than (or a inconsistent version of a
fe), and how do you compare populations in that case? You could
standardize over your entire data. Than you are probably thinking about
a single super-population, but does that make substantive sense, and if
so is your data a good sample from that super-population?
