Bias-Corrected Least Squares Dummy Variable (LSDVC) Estimator

LSDVC is a bias-corrected panel data estimator introduced by Kiviet (1995) to address the well-known Nickell bias that afflicts the standard Least Squares Dummy Variable (LSDV) estimator in dynamic panel models with a lagged dependent variable. It is particularly suited for researchers working with datasets where the number of time periods T is small relative to the number of cross-sectional units N, such as firm-level or country-level panels spanning a short time horizon.
