We derive the asymptotic distribution of the standard F-test statistic for fixed effects, in static linear panel data models, under both non-normality and heteroskedasticity of the error terms, when the cross-section dimension is large but the time series dimension is fixed. It is shown that a...

In this paper, we develop an info-metric framework for testing hypotheses about structural instability in nonlinear, dynamic models estimated from the information in population moment conditions. Our methods are designed to distinguish between three states of the world: (i) the model is...
