Testing additive versus interactive effects in fixed-[Formula presented] panels

Westerlund, Joakim LU (2019) In Economics Letters 174. p.5-8
Abstract

This paper proposes a new test of the null hypothesis of additive fixed effects versus the alternative of general interactive effects. This is not the only test of its kind in the literature; however, it is the only test that is valid in panels where [Formula presented] is fixed. The asymptotic distribution of the new test statistic is derived and simulation results are provided to suggest that it performs well in small samples.
