Hi Statalisters
Is it possible to calculate standardised coefficients when using a fixed effects model?
I want to use the formula B1' = B1 Sx1
Sy
but I am not sure if this is suitable given the fixed effects transformation.
Can I use the standard deviations of the non-transformed x1 (Sx1) and y (Sy) variables, even though B1 is estimated using transformed observations?
Or can I simply first standardise my observations for each variable and then run xtreg, fe? Will this produce standardised coefficients?
Thanks in advance
James
