Note(s):t-Values in parenthesis. Sargan is a test of overidentification. AR(2) is the Blundell–Bond test for second-order autocorrelation. Hansen is a test of over-identifying restrictions under the null hypothesis that all instruments are correlated with the disturbance process. F is the test of the joint significance of all coefficients. Variables’ definitions figure in the  Appendix. Significance levels are represented by ∗∗∗ (1%), ∗∗ (5%) and ∗ (10%)
