Please help...
Dear all,
I wonder which is better between Xtregar, fe robust cluster() and
Xtregar under FE model if one finds autocorrelation or even assumes
they exist.
I tried running regressions and found substantive differences provided
by these two estimators. I thought if autocorrelation exists, it
shouldn't change the coefficient that largely i.e. only the standard
errors are effects?
And, since -Xtregar also works under the FE , it then should provide
close if not similar estimates to the -Xtreg, fe robust cluster()?
I don't understand why the estimates provided are different largely
and there are even the changes in signs.
I will be very grateful if anyone could help with this. Thank you very
much in advance,
May
