Approximating the bias of the LSDV estimator for dynamic unbalanced panel data models

Author

  • Bruno, Giovanni S.F.

Abstract

This paper extends the LSDV bias approximations in Bun and Kiviet (2003) to unbalanced panels. The approximations are obtained by modify-ing the within operator to accommodate the dynamic selection rule. They are accurate, with higher order terms bringing only decreasing improve-ments to the approximations. This removes an important cause for limited applicability of bias corrected LSDV estimators.
