Large-N and Large-T Properties of Panel Data Estimators and the Hausman Test



Now we start the proof of (71) . Let si2,T = E (ι0Qi,T)2 and SN2,T = Pi si2,T.
Under Assumption 11, we have

as M →∞, and so ∣ι0DTwJi 2 is uniformly integrable in N,T. Then, by Vitali’s

Pi EPi2,N T =1. According to Theorem 2 of Phillips and Moon (1999),
the weak convergence in (72) follows if we can show that

the Lindeberg-Feller condition (73) follows, and we have all the desired results.
