摘要
This paper considers the GMM estimator, alpha, of the autoregressive parameter in linear dynamic panel data models with fixed effects when the data-generating process has a unit root. Previous literature has established that the limit distribution of n(1/4)(alpha - 1) is degenerate and nondegenerate each with probability 1/2. We sharpen this result by showing that the limit distribution of n(1/2)(alpha - 1) is nondegenerate when n(1/4)(alpha - 1) converges in probability to 0, and we characterize the limit distribution which is nonstandard.
