Cross country GDP growth panel covering the period 1960-1995 used by
Liu and Stengos (2000) and Maasoumi, Racine, and Stengos (2007). There
are 616 observations in total. data("oecdpanel") makes available
the dataset "oecdpanel" plus an additional object "bw".
data("oecdpanel")
A data frame with 7 columns, and 616 rows. This panel covers 7 5-year periods: 1960-1964, 1965-1969, 1970-1974, 1975-1979, 1980-1984, 1985-1989 and 1990-1994.
A separate local-linear rbandwidth object (`bw') has
been computed for the user's convenience which can be used to
visualize this dataset using npplot(bws=bw).
