EViews Help - Estimating A Panel Equation

The document discusses estimating a panel equation in EViews. It explains that the first step is to open the equation dialog and select the estimation method, such as least squares or instrumental variables. It then describes specifying the equation and sample, and provides options for least squares panel estimation including equation specification, panel options, and general estimation options.

Equation
The first step in estimating a panel equation is to call up an equation dialog by clicking on Object/New
Panel Estimation Object.../Equation or Quick/Estimate Equation from the main menu, or typing the keyword
Examples equation in the command window. You should make certain that your workfile is structured as a panel
Panel Equation Testing workfile. EViews will detect the presence of your panel structure and in place of the standard equation
dialog will open the panel Equation Estimation dialog.
Estimation Background
References You should use the Method dropdown menu to choose between LS - Least Squares (LS and AR),
TSLS - Two-Stage Least Squares (TSLS and AR), and GMM / DPD - Generalized Method of
Panel Cointegration Moments / Dynamic Panel Data techniques. If you select the either of the latter two methods, the
Estimation dialog will be updated to provide you with an additional page for specifying instruments (see
Panel Statistics Instrumental Variables Estimation).

Advanced Multivariate The remaining estimation supported estimation techniques do not account for the panel structure of
Analysis your workfile, save for lags not crossing the boundaries between cross-section units.

You should provide an equation specification in the upper Equation specification edit box, and an
estimation sample in the Sample edit box.

The equation may be specified by list or by expression as described in Specifying an Equation in

EViews.

In general, most of the specifications allowed in non-panel equation settings may also be specified here.
You may, for example, include AR terms in both linear and nonlinear specifications, and may include PDL
terms in equations specified by list. You may not, however, include MA terms in a panel setting.
