The HPPANEL Procedure

PROC HPPANEL Statement

  • PROC HPPANEL options;

The HPPANEL statement invokes the HPPANEL procedure.

You can specify the following options:

DATA=SAS-data-set

names the input data set. Only one observation is allowed for each cross section and time period. If you omit the DATA= option, PROC HPPANEL uses the most recently created SAS data set.

CORRB

prints the matrix of estimated correlations between the parameter estimates.

COVB

prints the matrix of estimated covariances between the parameter estimates.

NOPRINT

suppresses the normal printed output.

OUTEST=SAS-data-set

names an output data set to contain the parameter estimates. When the OUTEST= option is not specified, the OUTEST= data set is not created. For more information about the structure of the OUTEST= data set, see the section OUTEST= Data Set.

OUTCOV
COVOUT

writes the standard errors and covariance matrix of the parameter estimates to the OUTEST= data set. For more information, see the section OUTEST= Data Set.

OUTCORR
CORROUT

writes the correlation matrix of the parameter estimates to the OUTEST= data set. For more information, see the section OUTEST= Data Set.

In addition, you can specify any of the following MODEL statement options in the PROC HPPANEL statement: FIXONE, FIXONETIME, FIXTWO, RANONE, RANTWO, NOINT, PRINTFIXED, and VCOMP=. Specifying these options in the PROC HPPANEL statement is equivalent to specifying them in the MODEL statement. For a complete description of each of these options, see the section MODEL Statement.
