Hello Again!

I have two questions please
1) Suppose I run a panel, but neglect to apply and fixed/random effects across both time and cross section. What am I doing exactly here then? Am i just runing a giant/pooled OLS?

2) After estimating my panel, I was checking for outliers by examining the view, residual table. Is there an equivalent eviews equivalent function to STATA's lvr2plot command?

How do I then remove these observations? Say observation 200 for 1992. Is there an easier way then typing it in meticulously framing it? ( say in 1-10 if i want to remove observation 4 I usually type 1 3 5 10). My data is 800 observations, over 4 years
so it is structured

obs1 91
92
93
94

etc.

Thank you very much!!

1) Yep. As the following quick program proves:

2) I'm not sure what LVR2PLOT does, but EViews doesn't have a way of examining outliers (yet).

An easy way of removing large outliers is to say something like:

smpl if @abs(resid)>20

Ah ok, thank you.
So that is directly comparable with a pooled OLS, yes?

Also,do you mean sample if abs(resid)<20?

He means "smpl"

smpl is the EViews command to set the sample.
sample is the EViews command to set the smpl.
Hey, sometimes life is counterintuitive!

Yeah, you're right about the sign.
