Hello,
Ich have an observational dataset at hand (Household Survey,
cross-sectional, 2800 observations). I am wondering at which level I
should cluster the standard errors (e.g. household level (around 1500
observations), regional level (70 observations), state level (20
observations)) in a linear regression.
- reg depvar indepvar, cluster(cluster_level) -
How do I test the appropriatness of the level at which I cluster?
Kind regards,
Ruediger
