Nov 5 at 12:28 | comment | added | Christoph Hanck | IV logic requires that all exogenous regressors should also be included in the first stage. So, even if you feel you do not need the effects in the first stage, why not still include them? | |
Nov 4 at 16:26 | comment | added | Anonymous | My second stage has both country (this is my cross-sectional variable) fixed effects and time fixed effects. However, I think the estimation of my first stage does not require time fixed effects since it should not be influenced by time-related factors. | |
