Well, it signals the "overwhelming rejection" of the null. So your problem
reduces to
a) finding the null
b) given success in a), interpreting what this implies for your underlying
research question.
BTW, most of the time a) is pretty easy, but a surprising number of people
go wrong in b) :-)

Subject: st: xtoverid output
Hi all,
if you get a p-value of 0.00 from xtoverid after running a xtreg, re,
does it mean that the RE is biased and that FE should be employed?
Thank you so much for your help,
Fardad
