Σύνοψη	The Pooled Mean Group (PMG) estimator, introduced by Pesaran, Shin, and Smith (1999), is a panel data technique designed for dynamic heterogeneous panels where the long-run equilibrium relationship is common across groups but short-run dynamics and error variances are allowed to differ. It is particularly suited for macro-panels with moderate N and T, such as cross-country growth, energy consumption, and financial development studies.	The ARDL bounds test is an autoregressive distributed lag method that tests for a cointegrating (long-run level) relationship between time series, introduced by Pesaran, Shin and Smith in 2001. Unlike the Johansen procedure, it remains valid whether the variables are I(0), I(1) or a mix of the two, and it is more reliable than Johansen in small samples of roughly 30 to 80 observations.	The Panel Data Fixed Effects model estimates relationships from panel data (the same units observed over several time periods) while controlling for unit- and/or time-specific effects, supporting causal inference. It is developed as the within estimator in standard treatments such as Hsiao's Analysis of Panel Data (2014).
