Note that e(M3) and e(M4) are only conservative estimates and thus we will usually be overestimating the standard errors. iterations(#) specifies the maximum number of iterations; the default is iterations(16000); set it to missing (.) This is the same adjustment that xtreg, fe does, but areg does not use it. individual slopes, instead of individual intercepts) are dealt with differently. Comparing reg and reghdfe, I get: Then, it looks reghdfe is successfully replicating margins without the atmeans option, because I get: But, let's say I keep everything the same and drop only mpg from the estimating equation: Then, it looks like I need to use the atmeans option with reghdfe in order to replicate the default margins behavior, because I get: Do you have any idea what could be causing this behavior? Since the gain from pairwise is usually minuscule for large datasets, and the computation is expensive, it may be a good practice to exclude this option for speedups. Communications in Applied Numerical Methods 2.4 (1986): 385-392. here. However, with very large datasets, it is sometimes useful to use low tolerances when running preliminary estimates. The problem is that I only get the constant indirectly (see e.g. Coded in Mata, which in most scenarios makes it even faster than areg and xtreg for a single fixed effect (see benchmarks on the Github page). For instance, if there are four sets of FEs, the first dimension will usually have no redundant coefficients (i.e. Multi-way-clustering is allowed. "Acceleration of vector sequences by multi-dimensional Delta-2 methods." This is equivalent to including an indicator/dummy variable for each category of each absvar. reghdfe. Possible values are 0 (none), 1 (some information), 2 (even more), 3 (adds dots for each iteration, and reports parsing details), 4 (adds details for every iteration step). Singleton obs. One solution is to ignore subsequent fixed effects (and thus oversestimate e(df_a) and understimate the degrees-of-freedom). For the second FE, the number of connected subgraphs with respect to the first FE will provide an exact estimate of the degrees-of-freedom lost, e(M2). Even with only one level of fixed effects, it is. So they were identified from the control group and I think theoretically the idea is fine. fixed-effects-model Share Cite Improve this question Follow At the other end, is not tight enough, the regression may not identify perfectly collinear regressors. We add firm, CEO and time fixed-effects (standard practice). This maintains compatibility with ivreg2 and other packages, but may unadvisable as described in ivregress (technical note). A novel and robust algorithm to efficiently absorb the fixed effects (extending the work of Guimaraes and Portugal, 2010). avar by Christopher F Baum and Mark E Schaffer, is the package used for estimating the HAC-robust standard errors of ols regressions. The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered: It looks like you have stumbled on a very odd bug from the old version of reghdfe (reghdfe versions from mid-2016 onwards shouldn't have this issue, but the SSC version is from early 2016). The problem is that margins flags this as a problem with the error "expression is a function of possibly stochastic quantities other than e(b)". avar by Christopher F Baum and Mark E Schaffer, is the package used for estimating the HAC-robust standard errors of ols regressions. Sign in The goal of this library is to reproduce the brilliant regHDFE Stata package on Python. (note: as of version 2.1, the constant is no longer reported) Ignore the constant; it doesn't tell you much. If you use this program in your research, please cite either the REPEC entry or the aforementioned papers. For nonlinear fixed effects, see ppmlhdfe (Poisson). To do so, the data must be stored in a long format (e.g. reghdfe is a stata command that runs linear and instrumental-variable regressions with many levels of fixed effects, by implementing the estimator of Correia (2015).More info here. Also invaluable are the great bug-spotting abilities of many users. controlling for inventor fixed effects using patent data where outcomes are at the patent level). This estimator augments the fixed point iteration of Guimares & Portugal (2010) and Gaure (2013), by adding three features: Replace the von Neumann-Halperin alternating projection transforms with symmetric alternatives. when saving residuals, fixed effects, or mobility groups), and is incompatible with most postestimation commands. 0? clusters will check if a fixed effect is nested within a clustervar. However, this doesn't work if the regression is perfectly explained (you can check it by running areg y x, a(d) and then test x). If you wish to use fast while reporting estat summarize, see the summarize option. , kiefer estimates standard errors consistent under arbitrary intra-group autocorrelation (but not heteroskedasticity) (Kiefer). For the fourth FE, we compute G(1,4), G(2,4) and G(3,4) and again choose the highest for e(M4). tuples by Joseph Lunchman and Nicholas Cox, is used when computing standard errors with multi-way clustering (two or more clustering variables). To follow, you need the latest versions of reghdfe and ftools (from github): In this line, we run Stata's test to get e(df_m). 20237. 29(2), pages 238-249. noconstant suppresses display of the _cons row in the main table. The problem is due to the fixed effects being incorrect, as show here: The fixed effects are incorrect because the old version of reghdfe incorrectly reported e (df_m) as zero instead of 1 ( e (df_m) counts the degrees of freedom lost due to the Xs). This package wouldn't have existed without the invaluable feedback and contributions of Paulo Guimaraes, Amine Ouazad, Mark Schaffer and Kit Baum. local version `clip(`c(version)', 11.2, 13.1)' // 11.2 minimum, 13+ preferred qui version `version . I believe the issue is that instead, the results of predict(xb) are being averaged and THEN the FE is being added for each observation. The classical transform is Kaczmarz (kaczmarz), and more stable alternatives are Cimmino (cimmino) and Symmetric Kaczmarz (symmetric_kaczmarz). Sign in It replaces the current dataset, so it is a good idea to precede it with a preserve command. Combining options: depending on which of absorb(), group(), and individual() you specify, you will trigger different use cases of reghdfe: 1. multiple heterogeneous slopes are allowed together. + indicates a recommended or important option. You can use it by itself (summarize(,quietly)) or with custom statistics (summarize(mean, quietly)). Login or. Thus, you can indicate as many clustervars as desired (e.g. In contrast, other production functions might scale linearly in which case "sum" might be the correct choice. Iteratively removes singleton groups by default, to avoid biasing the standard errors (see ancillary document). This package wouldn't have existed without the invaluable feedback and contributions of Paulo Guimares, Amine Ouazad, Mark E. Schaffer, Kit Baum, Tom Zylkin, and Matthieu Gomez. You can browse but not post. I did just want to flag it since you had mentioned in #32 that you had not done comprehensive testing. Note: detecting perfectly collinear regressors is more difficult with iterative methods (i.e. Frequency weights, analytic weights, and probability weights are allowed. The most useful are count range sd median p##. 2. Advanced options for computing standard errors, thanks to the. Please be aware that in most cases these estimates are neither consistent nor econometrically identified. (also see here). 15 Jun 2018, 01:48. Note: Each transform is just a plug-in Mata function, so a larger number of acceleration techniques are available, albeit undocumented (and slower). For a careful explanation, see the ivreg2 help file, from which the comments below borrow. The suboption ,nosave will prevent that. are dropped iteratively until no more singletons are found (see ancilliary article for details). For the third FE, we do not know exactly. year), and fixed effects for each inventor that worked in a patent. residuals (without parenthesis) saves the residuals in the variable _reghdfe_resid (overwriting it if it already exists). "New methods to estimate models with large sets of fixed effects with an application to matched employer-employee data from Germany." To spot perfectly collinear regressors that were not dropped, look for extremely high standard errors. You can check that easily when running e.g. prune(str)prune vertices of degree-1; acts as a preconditioner that is useful if the underlying network is very sparse; currently disabled. Note that group here means whatever aggregation unit at which the outcome is defined. In my regression model (Y ~ A:B), a numeric variable (A) interacts with a categorical variable (B). However, future replays will only replay the iv regression. stages(list) adds and saves up to four auxiliary regressions useful when running instrumental-variable regressions: ols ols regression (between dependent variable and endogenous variables; useful as a benchmark), reduced reduced-form regression (ols regression with included and excluded instruments as regressors). If you want to predict afterwards but don't care about setting the names of each fixed effect, use the savefe suboption. Example: reghdfe price (weight=length), absorb(turn) subopt(nocollin) stages(first, eform(exp(beta)) ). The paper explaining the specifics of the algorithm is a work-in-progress and available upon request. 4. predict u_hat0, xbd My questions are as follow 1) Does it give sense to predict the fitted values including the individual effects (as indicated above) to estimate the mean impact of the technology by taking the difference of predicted values (u_hat1-u_hat0)? Since there is no uncertainty, the fitted values should be exactly recover the original y's, the standard reg y x i.d does what I expect, reghdfe doesn't. The solution: To address this, reghdfe uses several methods to count instances as possible of collinearities of FEs. using only 2008, when the data is available for 2008 and 2009). the first absvar and the second absvar). individual slopes, instead of individual intercepts) are dealt with differently. all is the default and almost always the best alternative. In the case where continuous is constant for a level of categorical, we know it is collinear with the intercept, so we adjust for it. continuous Fixed effects with continuous interactions (i.e. A frequent rule of thumb is that each cluster variable must have at least 50 different categories (the number of categories for each clustervar appears on the header of the regression table). e(M1)==1), since we are running the model without a constant. do you know more? Well occasionally send you account related emails. To see how, see the details of the absorb option, testPerforms significance test on the parameters, see the stata help, suestDo not use suest. This issue is similar to applying the CUE estimator, described further below. unadjusted|ols estimates conventional standard errors, valid under the assumptions of homoscedasticity and no correlation between observations even in small samples. This has been discussed in the past in the context of -areg- and the idea was that outside the sample you don't know the fixed effects outside the sample. predict, xbd doesn't recognized changed variables. Was this ever resolved? display_options: noomitted, vsquish, noemptycells, baselevels, allbaselevels, nofvlabel, fvwrap(#), fvwrapon(style), cformat(%fmt), pformat(%fmt), sformat(%fmt), and nolstretch; see [R] estimation options. ). where all observations of a given firm and year are clustered together. version(#) reghdfe has had so far two large rewrites, from version 3 to 4, and version 5 to version 6. dofadjustments(doflist) selects how the degrees-of-freedom, as well as e(df_a), are adjusted due to the absorbed fixed effects. predict and margins.1 By all accounts, reghdfe is the current state-of-the-art com-mand for estimation of linear regression models with HDFE, and the package has been REGHDFE: Distribution-Date: 20180917 The default is to pool variables in groups of 10. Note that even if this is not exactly cue, it may still be a desirable/useful alternative to standard cue, as explained in the article. Note that e(M3) and e(M4) are only conservative estimates and thus we will usually be overestimating the standard errors. This time I'm using version 5.2.0 17jul2018. If that's the case, perhaps it's more natural to just use ppmlhdfe ? Stata Journal, 10(4), 628-649, 2010. 1. In this case, consider using higher tolerances. Specifically, the individual and group identifiers must uniquely identify the observations (so for instance the command "isid patent_id inventor_id" will not raise an error). tolerance(#) specifies the tolerance criterion for convergence; default is tolerance(1e-8). "OLS with Multiple High Dimensional Category Dummies". allowing for intragroup correlation across individuals, time, country, etc). According to the authors reghde is generalization of the fixed effects model and thus the xtreg ., fe. multiple heterogeneous slopes are allowed together. For instance, a study of innovation might want to estimate patent citations as a function of patent characteristics, standard fixed effects (e.g. The panel variables (absvars) should probably be nested within the clusters (clustervars) due to the within-panel correlation induced by the FEs. (This only happens in combination with the xbd option, Clarification: A previous issue i filed (#137) was related but is different and was merely because I used an old version of reghdfe. Example: Am I getting something wrong or is this a bug? 7. More suboptions avalable, preserve the dataset and drop variables as much as possible on every step, control columns and column formats, row spacing, line width, display of omitted variables and base and empty cells, and factor-variable labeling, amount of debugging information to show (0=None, 1=Some, 2=More, 3=Parsing/convergence details, 4=Every iteration), show elapsed times by stage of computation, run previous versions of reghdfe. simonheb commented on Jul 17, 2018. You signed in with another tab or window. Thanks! Mittag, N. 2012. (Is this something I can address on my end?). This is overtly conservative, although it is the faster method by virtue of not doing anything. reghdfeabsorb () aregabsorb ()1i.idi.time reg (i.id i.time) y$xidtime areg y $x i.time, absorb (id) cluster (id) reghdfe y $x, absorb (id time) cluster (id) reg y $x i.id i.time, cluster (id) For instance, something that I can replicate with the sample datasets in Stata (e.g. For the fourth FE, we compute G(1,4), G(2,4), and G(3,4) and again choose the highest for e(M4). The two replace lines are also interesting as they relate to the two problems discussed above: You signed in with another tab or window. The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered: This works for me as a quick and dirty workaround: But I'd somehow expect this to be the default behaviour when I use ,xbd. Most time is usually spent on three steps: map_precompute(), map_solve() and the regression step. In a way, we can do it already with predicts .. , xbd. which returns: you must add the resid option to reghdfe before running this prediction. This will delete all variables named __hdfe*__ and create new ones as required. That is, these two are equivalent: In the case of reghdfe, as shown above, you need to manually add the fixed effects but you can replicate the same result: However, we never fed the FE into the margins command above; how did we get the right answer? Another case is to add additional individuals during the same years. In addition, reghdfe is build upon important contributions from the Stata community: reg2hdfe, from Paulo Guimaraes, and a2reg from Amine Ouazad, were the inspiration and building blocks on which reghdfe was built. For instance, in an standard panel with individual and time fixed effects, we require both the number of individuals and time periods to grow asymptotically. This is overtly conservative, although it is the faster method by virtue of not doing anything. Time series and factor variable notation, even within the absorbing variables and cluster variables. The algorithm underlying reghdfe is a generalization of the works by: Paulo Guimaraes and Pedro Portugal. In that case, line 2269 was executed, instead of line 2266. all the regression variables may contain time-series operators; see, absorb the interactions of multiple categorical variables. Moreover, after fraud events, the new CEOs are usually specialized in dealing with the aftershocks of such events (and are usually accountants or lawyers). Well occasionally send you account related emails. ivsuite(subcmd) allows the IV/2SLS regression to be run either using ivregress or ivreg2. what do we use for estimates of the turn fixed effects for values above 40? Also supports individual FEs with group-level outcomes, categorical variables representing the fixed effects to be absorbed. For instance, vce(cluster firm#year) will estimate SEs with one-way clustering i.e. reghdfe is a generalization of areg (and xtreg,fe, xtivreg,fe) for multiple levels of fixed effects (including heterogeneous slopes), alternative estimators (2sls, gmm2s, liml), and additional robust standard errors (multi-way clustering, HAC standard errors, etc). The algorithm used for this is described in Abowd et al (1999), and relies on results from graph theory (finding the number of connected sub-graphs in a bipartite graph). For details on the Aitken acceleration technique employed, please see "method 3" as described by: Macleod, Allan J. Is the same package used by ivreg2, and allows the bw, kernel, dkraay and kiefer suboptions. continuous Fixed effects with continuous interactions (i.e. Presently, this package replicates regHDFE functionality for most use cases. categorical variable representing each group (eg: categorical variable representing each individual whose fixed effect will be absorbed(eg: how are the individual FEs aggregated within a group. reghdfe fits a linear or instrumental-variable regression absorbing an arbitrary number of categorical factors and factorial interactions Optionally, it saves the estimated fixed effects. I was trying to predict outcomes in absence of treatment in an student-level RCT, the fixed effects were for schools and years. A copy of this help file, as well as a more in-depth user guide is in development and will be available at "http://scorreia.com/reghdfe". This difference is in the constant. Think twice before saving the fixed effects. This is equivalent to using egen group(var1 var2) to create a new variable, but more convenient and faster. Note that fast will be disabled when adding variables to the dataset (i.e. The classical transform is Kaczmarz (kaczmarz), and more stable alternatives are Cimmino (cimmino) and Symmetric Kaczmarz (symmetric_kaczmarz). Many thanks! expression(exp( predict( xb + FE ) )). , twicerobust will compute robust standard errors not only on the first but on the second step of the gmm2s estimation. Therefore, the regressor (fraud) affects the fixed effect (identity of the incoming CEO). Estimation is implemented using a modified version of the iteratively reweighted least-squares algorithm that allows for fast estimation in the presence of HDFE. The estimates for the year FEs would be consistent, but another question arises: what do we input instead of the FE estimate for those individuals. groupvar(newvar) name of the new variable that will contain the first mobility group. I see. Note that all the advanced estimators rely on asymptotic theory, and will likely have poor performance with small samples (but again if you are using reghdfe, that is probably not your case), unadjusted/ols estimates conventional standard errors, valid even in small samples under the assumptions of homoscedasticity and no correlation between observations, robust estimates heteroscedasticity-consistent standard errors (Huber/White/sandwich estimators), but still assuming independence between observations, Warning: in a FE panel regression, using robust will lead to inconsistent standard errors if for every fixed effect, the other dimension is fixed. With the reg and predict commands it is possible to make out-of-sample predictions, i.e. If all are specified, this is equivalent to a fixed-effects regression at the group level and individual FEs. I have a question about the use of REGHDFE, created by. (note: as of version 3.0 singletons are dropped by default) It's good practice to drop singletons. 5. If you are an economist this will likely make your . For the second FE, the number of connected subgraphs with respect to the first FE will provide an exact estimate of the degrees-of-freedom lost, e(M2). e(M1)==1), since we are running the model without a constant. Suss. ivreg2 is the default, but needs to be installed for that option to work. higher than the default). To save the summary table silently (without showing it after the regression table), use the quietly suboption. You signed in with another tab or window. What version of reghdfe are you using? The fixed effects of these CEOs will also tend to be quite low, as they tend to manage firms with very risky outcomes. For alternative estimators (2sls, gmm2s, liml), as well as additional standard errors (HAC, etc) see ivreghdfe. Some preliminary simulations done by the author showed a very poor convergence of this method. number of individuals or years). Have a question about this project? matthieugomez commented on May 19, 2015. Also, absorb just indicates the fixed effects of the regression. verbose(#) orders the command to print debugging information. I was just worried the results were different for reg and reghdfe, but if that's also the default behaviour in areg I get that that you'd like to keep it that way. Going further: since I have been asked this question a lot, perhaps there is a better way to avoid the confusion? Alternative syntax: - To save the estimates of specific absvars, write. Additional methods, such as bootstrap are also possible but not yet implemented. tuples by Joseph Lunchman and Nicholas Cox, is used when computing standard errors with multi-way clustering (two or more clustering variables). Here the command is . Note that both options are econometrically valid, and aggregation() should be determined based on the economics behind each specification. Mean is the default method. Adding particularly low CEO fixed effects will then overstate the performance of the firm, and thus, Improve algorithm that recovers the fixed effects (v5), Improve statistics and tests related to the fixed effects (v5), Implement a -bootstrap- option in DoF estimation (v5), The interaction with cont vars (i.a#c.b) may suffer from numerical accuracy issues, as we are dividing by a sum of squares, Calculate exact DoF adjustment for 3+ HDFEs (note: not a problem with cluster VCE when one FE is nested within the cluster), More postestimation commands (lincom? That behavior only works for xb, where you get the correct results. reghdfe dep_var ind_vars, absorb(i.fixeff1 i.fixeff2, savefe) cluster(t) resid My attempts yield errors: xtqptest _reghdfe_resid, lags(1) yields _reghdfe_resid: Residuals do not appear to include the fixed effect , which is based on ue = c_i + e_it The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered: To be honest, I am struggling to understand what margins is doing under the hood. Example: reghdfe price weight, absorb(turn trunk, savefe). no redundant fixed effects). to your account. one- and two-way fixed effects), but in others it will only provide a conservative estimate. 27(2), pages 617-661. Already on GitHub? May require you to previously save the fixed effects (except for option xb). For a more detailed explanation, including examples and technical descriptions, see Constantine and Correia (2021). In other words, an absvar of var1##c.var2 converges easily, but an absvar of var1#c.var2 will converge slowly and may require a higher tolerance. * ??? group(groupvar) categorical variable representing each group (eg: patent_id). However, we can compute the number of connected subgraphs between the first and third G(1,3), and second and third G(2,3) fixed effects, and choose the higher of those as the closest estimate for e(M3). At the other end, low tolerances (below 1e-6) are not generally recommended, as the iteration might have been stopped too soon, and thus the reported estimates might be incorrect. Finally, we compute e(df_a) = e(K1) - e(M1) + e(K2) - e(M2) + e(K3) - e(M3) + e(K4) - e(M4); where e(K#) is the number of levels or dimensions for the #-th fixed effect (e.g. This is potentially too aggressive, as many of these fixed effects might be perfectly collinear with each other, and the true number of DoF lost might be lower. To keep additional (untransformed) variables in the new dataset, use the keep(varlist) suboption. If you need those, either i) increase tolerance or ii) use slope-and-intercept absvars ("state##c.time"), even if the intercept is redundant. notable suppresses display of the coefficient table. Example: clear set obs 100 gen x1 = rnormal() gen x2 = rnormal() gen d. expression(exp( predict(xb) + FE )), but we really want the FE to go INSIDE the predict command: By clicking Sign up for GitHub, you agree to our terms of service and This will delete all preexisting variables matching __hdfe*__ and create new ones as required. You signed in with another tab or window. to your account, Hi Sergio, Note: The default acceleration is Conjugate Gradient and the default transform is Symmetric Kaczmarz. That is, running "bysort group: keep if _n == 1" and then "reghdfe ". TBH margins is quite complex, I'm not even sure I know exactly all it does. reghdfe lprice i.foreign , absorb(FE = rep78) resid margins foreign, expression(exp(predict(xbd))) atmeans On a related note, is there a specific reason for what you want to achieve? I have tried to do this with the reghdfe command without success. Be aware that adding several HDFEs is not a panacea. reghdfe runs linear and instrumental-variable regressions with many levels of fixed effects, by implementing the estimator of Correia (2015) according to the authors of this user written command see here. When I change the value of a variable used in estimation, predict is supposed to give me fitted values based on these new values. The complete list of accepted statistics is available in the tabstat help. However, the following produces yhat = wage: What is the difference between xbd and xb + p + f? (If you are interested in discussing these or others, feel free to contact us), As above, but also compute clustered standard errors, Interactions in the absorbed variables (notice that only the # symbol is allowed), Individual (inventor) & group (patent) fixed effects, Individual & group fixed effects, with an additional standard fixed effects variable, Individual & group fixed effects, specifying with a different method of aggregation (sum). privacy statement. This variable is not automatically added to absorb(), so you must include it in the absvar list. program define reghdfe_old_p * (Maybe refactor using _pred_se ??) - However, be aware that estimates for the fixed effects are generally inconsistent and not econometrically identified. Cameron, A. Colin & Gelbach, Jonah B. Requires ivsuite(ivregress), but will not give the exact same results as ivregress. However, given the sizes of the datasets typically used with reghdfe, the difference should be small. The paper explaining the specifics of the algorithm is a work-in-progress and available upon request. If you need those, either i) increase tolerance or ii) use slope-and-intercept absvars ("state##c.time"), even if the intercept is redundant. Future versions of reghdfe may change this as features are added. Note that for tolerances beyond 1e-14, the limits of the double precision are reached and the results will most likely not converge. 1 Answer. (2016).LinearModelswithHigh-DimensionalFixed Effects:AnEfcientandFeasibleEstimator.WorkingPaper Thanks! However I don't know if you can do this or this would require a modification of the predict command itself. Not sure if I should add an F-test for the absvars in the vce(robust) and vce(cluster) cases. Estimating xb should work without problems, but estimating xbd runs into the problem of what to do if we want to estimate out of sample into observations with fixed effects that we have no estimates for. clear sysuse auto.dta reghdfe price weight length trunk headroom gear_ratio, abs (foreign rep78, savefe) vce (robust) resid keepsingleton predict xbd, xbd reghdfe price weight length trunk headroom gear_ratio, abs (foreign rep78, savefe) vce (robust) resid keepsingleton replace weight = 0 replace length = 0 replace . technique(map) (default)will partial out variables using the "method of alternating projections" (MAP) in any of its variants.
