Panel data contain observations of multiple phenomena obtained over multiple time periods for the same firms or individuals. Panel data analysis fixed and random effects using stata v. In statistics, a fixed effects model is a statistical model in which the model parameters are fixed or nonrandom quantities. In our example, because the within and betweeneffects are orthogonal, thus the re produces the same results as the individual fe and be.
Finally, if you think that the heterogeneity entails slops parameter estimates of regressors varying across individual andor time. The command for the test is xtcsd, you have to install it typing ssc install xtcsd. If you download the paper or you read it in table 1 which should be at page.
