Dear all,

I am new to this list, so please accept my apologies if my question is too
basic.

I am trying to run a logit model on panel data and would really appreciate
your advice on how to do that.

I am analysing the effects of different variables on car production in a
given country for a given year. Therefore, I am using the plm function to
run a fixed effects model on my Country-Year panel data. However, I am also
interested in running a logit model in order to find out what determines if
a country produces cars or not. I believe I need to run a fixed effects
logit model.

I am trying to do that by using the lmer package in the following way:

model <- lmer(Production ~ some variables + (1|Country)+(1|Year),
family=binomial)
where Production is a binary variable.

Could you please let me know if this makes sense or should I be using some
other R-package.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Many thanks and kind regards,
Stanislav
