Missing data points

Postby Jacco1990 » Tue Dec 17, 2013 5:59 am

Hello,

I'm using eviews 8 and I have at my disposal a dataset containing panel data (Time Series Cross Sectional Data) with lots of missing data points. I'm estimating a period fixed effects model and my question is, how does eviews treat the missing data and is there any way I can alter the treatment of missing data?

Thanks in advance,
Jacob de Vries

It simply omits the observations for which there are missing data. There is no way to change that.
