This paper proposes simple tests of error cross section dependence which are applicable to a variety of panel data … based on average of pair-wise correlation coefficients of the OLS residuals from the individual regressions in the panel …, and as predicted by the theory, quite robust to the presence of unit roots and structural breaks. The use of the CD test …

This paper provides an overview of the recent literature on estimation and inference in large panel data models with … cross-sectional dependence. It reviews panel data models with strictly exogenous regressors as well as dynamic models with …-sectional dependence. It considers a number of alternative estimators for static and dynamic panel data models, distinguishing between …
