Installation

First, the tool to install from GitHub is required. It can be installed by typing in the Stata command line:

net install github, from("https://haghish.github.io/github/")

typical search is performed by typing

github search sf

which provides tools for installation. The package can be installed directly by typing

github install OlegBadunenko/sf-panel-3rd-gen

The package can be installed without the github command:

net install xtsf3g, from("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OlegBadunenko/sf-panel-3td-gen/main")

Help

Help files after installation can be called as usual:

help xtsf3gpss1

for the PSS model of type I

help xtsf3gpss2

for the PSS model of type II

help xtsf3gpss3

for the PSS model of type III

and

help xtsf3gkss

for the KSS model.
