What to do (and not to do) with time-series cross-section data
Nathaniel Beck,Jonathan N. Katz +1 more
TL;DR: The generalized least squares approach of Parks produces standard errors that lead to extreme overconfidence, often underestimating variability by 50% or more, and a new method is offered that is both easier to implement and produces accurate standard errors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Taking Time Seriously: Time-Series-Cross-Section Analysis with a Binary Dependent Variable
TL;DR: In this article, a simple diagnostic for temporal dependence and a simple remedy based on the idea that binary dependent variable (BTSCS) data are identical to grouped duration data is proposed.

Event History Modeling: A Guide for Social Scientists
Janet M. Box-Steffensmeier,Bradford S. Jones,R. Michael Alvarez,Nathaniel Beck,Lawrence L. Wu +4 more
TL;DR: The Cox Proportional Hazards model is used for event history analysis as a guide to modeling strategies for unobserved heterogeneity in political analysis and event history.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nuisance vs. Substance: Specifying and Estimating Time-Series-Cross-Section Models
Nathaniel Beck,Jonathan N. Katz +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a lagged dependent variable approach was proposed for analyzing time-series-cross-section data, which makes it easier for researchers to examine dynamics and allows for natural generalizations in a manner that the serially correlated inequalities approach does not.
Journal ArticleDOI
TIME-SERIES–CROSS-SECTION DATA: What Have We Learned in the Past Few Years?
TL;DR: In this article, the analysis of time-series-cross-section (TSCS) data has been studied in comparative politics and international relations (IR), where the authors argue that treating TSCS issues as an estimation nuisance is old-fashioned; those wishing to pursue this approach should use ordinary least squares with panel correct standard errors rather than generalized least squares.
