Jackknife Inference for Fixed Effects Models

Econometrics 2026-04-23 v2

Abstract

This paper develops a general method of inference for fixed effects models which is (i) automatic, (ii) computationally inexpensive, (iii) tuning parameter-free, and (iv) highly model agnostic. Specifically, we show how to combine a collection of subsample estimators into a jackknife tt-statistic, from which hypothesis tests, confidence intervals, and pp-values are readily obtained.
