Testing for distributional features in varying coefficient panel data models

This article provides several tests for skewness and kurtosis for the error terms in a one-way fixed-effects varying coefficient panel data model. To obtain these tests, estimators of higher-order moments of both error components are obtained as solutions of estimating equations. Additionally, to ob...
