Feasible bias-corrected OLS, within-groups, and first-differences estimators for typical micro and macro AR(1) panel data models [PDF]
, 2003 Dynamic panel data (DPD) models are usually estimated by the generalized method of moments. However, it is well documented in the DPD literature that this estimator suffers from considerable finite sample bias, especially when the time series is highly ...

Dynamic Panel Data Models Featuring Endogenous Interaction and Spatially Correlated Errors [PDF]
We extend the three-step generalized methods of moments (GMM) approach of Kapoor, Kelejian, and Prucha (2007), which corrects for spatially correlated errors in static panel data models, by introducing a spatial lag and a one-period lag of the dependent ...
