针对非线性动态面板模型中固定效应估计因伴随参数问题产生的严重偏差,提出一种偏差校正方法,使估计量在n和T同速增长时渐近无偏,并通过蒙特卡洛模拟验证小样本表现。

Abstract

The fixed effects estimator of panel models can be severely biased because of well-known incidental parameter problems. It is shown that this bias can be reduced in nonlinear dynamic panel models. We consider asymptotics where n and T grow at the same rate as an approximation that facilitates comparison of bias properties. Under these asymptotics, the bias-corrected estimators we propose are centered at the truth, whereas fixed effects estimators are not. We discuss several examples and provide Monte Carlo evidence for the small sample performance of our procedure.
