xtpqardl-package: Panel Quantile Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model

Description

The xtpqardl package provides functions for estimating Panel Quantile Autoregressive Distributed Lag (PQARDL) models. It combines the panel ARDL methodology of Pesaran, Shin, and Smith (1999) with quantile regression to allow for heterogeneous effects across the conditional distribution of the response variable.

Arguments

Main Functions

  • xtpqardl: Estimate PQARDL model

  • summary.xtpqardl: Detailed results summary

  • wald_test: Test parameter equality across quantiles

  • compute_irf: Compute impulse response function

Details

The main function is xtpqardl, which estimates PQARDL models using Pooled Mean Group (PMG), Mean Group (MG), or Dynamic Fixed Effects (DFE) estimators. Key features include:

  • Estimation at multiple quantiles simultaneously

  • Long-run cointegrating parameter estimation

  • Error correction term (ECT) speed of adjustment

  • Half-life of adjustment computation

  • Wald tests for parameter equality across quantiles

  • Impulse response function computation

  • Automatic lag selection using BIC or AIC
