Moment Conditions for Dynamic Panel Logit Models with Fixed Effects
This paper investigates the construction of moment conditions in discrete choice panel data with individual specific fixed effects. We describe how to systematically explore the existence of moment conditions that do not depend on the fixed effects, and we demonstrate how to construct them when they exist. Our approach is closely related to the numerical "functional differencing" construction in Bonhomme (2012), but our emphasis is to find explicit analytic expressions for the moment functions. We first explain the construction and give examples of such moment conditions in various models. Then, we focus on the dynamic binary choice logit model and explore the implications of the moment conditions for identification and estimation of the model parameters that are common to all individuals.

Dynamic Ordered Panel Logit Models
This paper studies a dynamic ordered logit model for panel data with fixed effects. The main contribution of the paper is to construct a set of valid moment conditions that are free of the fixed effects. The moment funct…

Kitazawa (2013, 2016) showed that the common parameters in the panel logit AR(1) model with strictly exogenous covariates and fixed effects are estimable at the root-n rate using the Generalized Method of Moments. Honor\…
validTransition Probabilities and Moment Restrictions in Dynamic Fixed Effects Logit Models
Dynamic logit models are popular tools in economics to measure state dependence. This paper introduces a new method to derive moment restrictions in a large class of such models with strictly exogenous regressors and fix…
validIdentification of Dynamic Panel Logit Models with Fixed Effects
We show that identification in a general class of dynamic panel logit models with fixed effects is related to the truncated moment problem from the mathematics literature. We use this connection to show that the identifi…
Root-n-consistent Conditional ML estimation of dynamic panel logit models with fixed effects
In this paper we first propose a root-n-consistent Conditional Maximum Likelihood (CML) estimator for all the common parameters in the panel logit AR(p) model with strictly exogenous covariates and fixed effects. Our CML…
