ANALYSIS OF PANEL DATA

Panel data models have become increasingly popular among applied researchers due to their heightened capacity for capturing the complexity of human behavior, as compared to cross-sectional or time series data models. This second edition represents asubstantial revision of the highly successful first edition (1986). Recent advances in panel data research are presented in an accessible manner and are carefully integrated with the older material. The thorough discussion of theory and the judicioususe of empirical examples make this book useful to graduate students and advanced researchers in economics, business, sociology and political science.
