Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, I have proposed a new statistical method to analyze dynamic panel data models based on the covariance structure analysis. The model considered in this project is very general in that many existing models are the special cases of my model. For instance, endogenous variables or a factor structure in the error is allowed. I investigated the theoretical property of the proposed method and confirmed by Monte Carlo simulation that it has better performance than those studied in the literature.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
動学的パネルデータモデルは、経済学・政治学・社会学・心理学等、様々な分野で利用されているモデルである。したがって、同モデルの精緻化や一般化、分析手法の改善は、本研究課題が属する経済学だけではなく、様々な分野の研究に貢献することになるため、大きなインパクトを持つと期待できる。また、これを機に、パネルデータ分析という観点から、分野横断的な研究が活性化するきっかけになることも期待できる。
