POOL

The POOL command does Pooled Cross Section - Time Series estimation under certain model specifications and conditions.

In general,  the format is:

 POOL depvar indeps / options NC=


The available options are:

Option Description
AR1 Estimate with AR(1) errors.
CORCOEF Estimates rho using the correlation coefficient form to confine the estimate of rho to [-1 , +1].
DN Uses a divisor of T instead of T-K for the PHI matrix.
FIXED Estimates a fixed effects model.
FULL Estimates the full cross-sectionally correlated and and time wise autoregressive model.
HETCOV Pooled OLS estimation with "Panel Corrected Standard Errors" (PCSE).
MULSIGSQ Multiplies Covariance Matrix by Sigma**2. Use NOMULSIGSQ to turn this off.
OLS Estimate by OLS.
SAME Forces all values of rho to be equal for each of the cross-sections.
CONV= Convergence criteria when ITER= is used.
CSINDEX= Specifies a variable that contains the cross-section identifier for each observation.
ITER= Maximum number of iterations.
NCROSS= Specifies the number of cross-sections in the data.
NTIME= Specifies the number of time periods in the data.
RHO= Specifies a value of rho to use instead of the estimated values.

Other available options are:
ANOVA, DLAG, DUMP, GF, LININV, LINLOG, LIST, LOGINV, LOGLIN, LOGLOG, MAX, NOCONSTANT, PCOR, PCOV, RESTRICT, RSTAT, BEG=, END=, COEF=, COV=, PREDICT=, RESID=, STDERR= and TRATIO= as defined for OLS and BLUP and UT as for GLS.

The available temporary variables on the POOL command are:
$ANF, $DF, $ERR, $DW, $K, $LLF, $N, $R2, $R2OP, $RAW, $RHO, $SIG2, $SSE, $SSR, $SST, $ZANF, $ZDF, $ZSSR, $ZSST.
