Hi, Dr. Lian,
I have a quick question regarding my research really struggling me. I watch your vedio of panel data. It's really a good tutoring.

Thanks for any suggestion in advance.

I have a fixed effect model to examine the firm's performance in a panel data set.

The dependent variables is firm's Return on asset(ROA).

ROA= f(Firm level control, state level control)

Can I put the state level control on the right hand side? I cluster the standard error by firm ID, however, if I put the state level variables on the right hand side, Do I  need to do cluster the standard error by the state.

Or this is totally wrong by put two different level control in a single model?

Thanks
Best regard.

If the state level control variables are time invariant (such as location), then they will be dropped when you excute the -xtreg y x, fe- command. The reason is that the time invariant variables are perfect collineary with fixed effects (FE) dummies.

Otherwise, they can be added to the FE model.

Whether you specify  -vce(cluster id)- or -vce(cluster state)- is determined by your theorical analysis.
-vce(cluster id)- implies that the error terms are indenpendent for different firms, but can be correlated within firm.
