Robust Random Effects Model

The Robust Random Effects model estimates panel data relationships using the GLS random effects estimator while replacing the conventional standard errors with sandwich (heteroscedasticity- and cluster-robust) variance estimates. This protects inference against arbitrary within-group correlation and heteroscedasticity without discarding the efficiency gains of random effects when unit-specific effects are genuinely uncorrelated with the regressors.
