Abstract

This paper presents the R package PanelTM, which provides tools for estimating twoand three-way dynamic panel threshold regression models. Estimation is performed using a generalized method of moments approach based on first-difference transformations and instrumental variables as developed by Seo and Shin (2016) and applied in a threeway fashion by Di Lascio and Perazzini (2024, 2022). In addition to model estimation, PanelTM offers functionalities for change point detection, simulation and performance evaluation within panel structures with regime switches. The package is particularly suited to applications requiring the identification of structural breaks in complex panel data, with support for both exogenous and endogenous variables and for threshold heterogeneity across multiple dimensions.
