Panel-based correlational research

Panel-based correlational research follows the same individuals, organizations, or units across multiple time points and quantifies associations among variables within that longitudinal structure. Unlike a one-shot correlational survey, the panel design captures temporal ordering and within-unit change, enabling resear

Panel-based Model Testing Research

Panel-based model testing research combines the longitudinal power of panel survey designs with the confirmatory rigor of structural model testing — such as structural equation modeling (SEM), path analysis, or confirmatory factor analysis — applied to data collected from the same units (individuals, firms, countries)

Panel-based Relational Survey

A panel-based relational survey is a quantitative design that recruits the same group of respondents and surveys them at two or more time points to examine how variables relate to, predict, or co-vary with one another over time.

PANIC

PANIC (Panel Analysis of Non-stationarity in Idiosyncratic and Common Components) is a second-generation panel unit root test introduced by Bai and Ng (2004).

The particle filter, introduced by Gordon, Salmond, and Smith in 1993, is a sequential Monte Carlo algorithm that approximates the Bayesian filtering distribution for nonlinear and non-Gaussian state-space models.

Particle Filter with Missing Data

A particle filter adapted for state-space models in which some observations are absent.
