I have the following regression table, and it has two problems. It is too wide and too long for a single page. What are the solutions for that issue?

Thank you!

    Welcome to TeX.SE! Please extend your code fragment to complete small document (begin with \documentclass and end with \end{document}), which reproduce your problem. – Zarko Sep 19 '23 at 19:08

    Most importantly, we'll need to know the margins that you're using so that we know how much we need to shrink the table. But the documentclass and packages will also be important. – Teepeemm Sep 19 '23 at 19:25
  • BTW, instead of use ˛num b...}for numbers of cells, you should defineScolumn type for columns of your table. Also it seems that you looking forthreeparttable` , etc. – Zarko Sep 19 '23 at 19:30

    Why is every number enclosed in a \num wrapper? – Mico Sep 19 '23 at 22:59

You wrote,

I have the following regression table, and it has two problems. It is too wide and too long for a single page.

While the table is quite long, it's not particularly wide. I suggest you employ a longtable environment to typeset the table.

Note that I would further recommend aligning the numbers in the six data columns on their respective decimal markers. Do get rid of the pointless and distracting \num wrappers, though.

The following screenshot shows just the first few lines of the longtable that's generated by compiling the subsequent code.
