Hi my peers,
I have a study with panel data from 2009 to 2018, for 104 companies (1040) observations. My study is causal relationship . I need to highlight the temporal effect on the regression results... How can I do that?
I tried two methods but each produced different result to some extent.
The first was through creating year dummies through command.... tab year, gen (yr_) ,this produce ten dummy years.
The second method was through i.year which produced only 9 years, leaving the beginning year i.e 2009. However, the regression result to great extent unchanged but significant years become less in i.year inclusion.
So, please
I dont know what correctly to follow of these or if there is another way that show the temporal effects on the study findings.
Thank you in advance for your help
