The HPPANEL Procedure

OUTPUT Statement

  • OUTPUT OUT=SAS-data-set <output-options> ;

The OUTPUT statement creates a new SAS data set to contain variables that are specified by the COPYVAR option, the cross-sectional ID (_CSID_), and the time period (_TSID_). This data set also contains the predicted value and the residual if they are specified by output-options. When the response values are missing for the observation, all output estimates except the residual are still computed as long as none of the explanatory variables are missing. You can specify only one OUTPUT statement.

You must specify the OUT= option:

OUT=SAS-data-set

names the output data set.

You can specify one or more of the following output-options:

COPYVAR=(SAS-variable-names)
COPYVARS=(SAS-variable-names)

adds SAS variables to the output data set.

PREDICTED

outputs estimates of predicted dependent variables.

RESIDUAL

outputs estimates of residuals.
