Note(s): Figures in parentheses are probability values based on White robust standard errors for heteroskedasticity. *, **, *** denote statistically significance at 1, 5 and 10% level, respectively. m2 is a serial correlation test of second-order using residuals of first differences, asymptotically distributed as N(0,1) under null hypothesis of no serial correlation. Sargan test is a test of overidentifying restrictions distributed asymptotically under null hypothesis of validity of instruments as Chi-squared
