Random Coefficient Models for Time-Series—Cross-Section Data: Monte Carlo Experiments

Beck, Nathaniel, Katz, Jonathan N.·2007·Political Analysis

Abstract

This article considers random coefficient models (RCMs) for time-series—cross-section data. These models allow for unit to unit variation in the model parameters. The heart of the article compares the finite sample properties of the fully pooled estimator, the unit by unit (unpooled) estimator, and the (maximum likelihood) RCM estimator. The maximum likelihood estimator RCM performs well, even where the data were generated so that the RCM would be problematic. In an appendix, we show that the most common feasible generalized least squares estimator of the RCM models is always inferior to the maximum likelihood estimator, and in smaller samples dramatically so.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
