Panel Data Analysis with R

Coursera Project Network via Coursera

This course may be unavailable.

Overview

In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn how to conduct Panel Data (Regression) Analysis. You will receive step-by-step instructions to analyze the 'RENTAL' dataset from 'Introductory Econometrics: A Modern Approach' by Wooldridge using R Studio. In this project, we will discuss three models namely, Ordinary Least Square (OLS), Fixed effects (FE) and Random effects (RE) in brief and check which one fits the model best. You will also learn some additional diagnostic tests which were not required for this example but are useful for other panel datasets (especially, macro panels). Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.
