(Debiased) Inference for Fixed Effects Estimators with Three-Dimensional Panel and Network Data (opens in new tab)

Inference for fixed effects estimators is often unreliable due to Nickell- and incidental parameter biases. While these issues are well understood for classical two-dimensional panels, little is known about three-dimensional panel structures (e.g., sender x receiver x time). We develop inferential theory for a broad class of linear and nonlinear fixed effects M-estimators in this setting, covering bipartite, directed, and undirected network ...
