Robust estimation for fixed and random effects panel data models with different centering methods
In the presence of outlying observations in panel data set, the traditional ordinary least square estimator can be strongly biased, lead to erroneous estimation and misleading inferential statement. However, Weighted Least Squares (WLS) are usually used to remedy the effect of outliers. Visek used L...
