Panel Data (Inconsistencies in Importing)

Postby smudge2626 » Sun Aug 26, 2012 1:27 pm

I have noticed an inconsistency in Panel Estimation, to present this more clearly I have simplified the dataset which is attached to this post. I have a Panel of 4 countries with annual data from 1990 to 1997.

If I create a Panel with all four countries with annual data for 1990 to 1997, firstly I run a fixed effects panel estimate from 1990 to 1994.

Secondly I create a new Panel with the same four countries and with the same annual data, however I have already trimmed the sample and import only the data from 1990 to 1994. I then run a fixed effects panel estimate from 1990 to 1994.

Surely these should be exactly the same, however they are quite different. Please could someone kindly explain if I have imported the data incorrectly, missed an econometric step, or otherwise?

Non-normality and collinearity are NOT problems!

The results look identical. What's the part that's different?

Maybe I'm missing something, but they look identical to me (apart from the variables being in a different order).
