Notes:
^a Notes d and e from Table 2.
^b Equations in column (1), (2) ad (3) are estimated using OLS. Columns (4), (5) and (6) are also estimated using OLS and by weighting each cell by employment.
^c With 25 time periods, the standard bias on the lagged dependent variable coefficients when estimating fixed effects models is small, so we ignore this problem (see Nickell, 1981).
