Hausman Test$_________

21.93 (0.06)

14.30 (0.160)

Notes: White diagonal standard errors & covariance (d.f. corrected). The t statistics are in parentheses. *, **, *** - statistically significant at
the 10, 5, and 1 per cent. $ The null is that RE estimation is consistent and therefore preferable to fixed effects. The test statistic is to be
compared to a Qui-Square with 13 and 10 degrees of freedom respectively (the number of time-varying regressors). The p-value is in
brackets.
