[3 half days] - [English]
Are you conducting a longitudinal survey? In other words, have you collected data at different points in time, hence called longitudinal or panel data?
The mixed models are a family of models with both fixed and random effects. They make it possible to take into account the correlation between several observations, in particular the longitudinal aspect of the data.
Training aims
This course provides an introduction to the analysis of panel-data. At the end of the training, participants will be able to use Stata effectively for manipulating and analyzing panel-datasets, to understand the error components model and the issue of unobserved heterogeneity, and finally to implement most commonly used linear panel-data estimators.
