By Lemma 2(d), (b), and (d),

B5 = Op (1),
√NTGχ,τA2 = Op (1),
Dx,T A5 = Op (1) ,

respectively. Under the fixed effect assumption (Assumption 10), Lemma 4
implies that

(as shown in Part (a)), we have

But, according to Lemma 4,

Therefore, (94), (97), (98) and (99) imply

Proof of Theorem 9

Using the notation in (87), we can express the Hausman test statistic by

[(A1 + θTF1¢ ¹ √NT (A2 + θTF2) - Af¹√NτA2] 0

× h^σVA1 ^{1 - σ}2 (A1 ^{+ θ2}TF1)  i

× [(A1 + θTF1)^-1 √NT (A2 + θTF2) - Af ¹√NτA2] .
