Betreff: Re: st: Literature Reference for Stata's Fixed-Effects
Transformation
Hi Sebastian,
I'm not positive, as I'm currently traveling and don't have my copy
with me, but I believe that this is addressed in chapter 10 of Stock
and Watson's Introduction to Econometrics textbook. Again, though,
I'm not positive.
