We investigate the influence of residual serial correlation and of the time dimension on statistical inference for a unit root in dynamic longitudinal data, known as panel data in econometrics. To this end, we introduce two test statistics based on method of moments estimators. The first is based on the generalized method of moments estimators, while the second is based on the instrumental variables estimator. Analytical results for the Instrumental Variables (IV) based test in a simplified setting show that (i) large time dimension panel unit root tests will suffer from serious size distortions in finite samples, even for samples that would normally be considered large in practice, and (ii) negative serial correlation in the error terms of the panel reduces the power of the unit root tests, possibly up to a point where the test becomes biased. However, near the unit root the test is shown to have power against a wide range of alternatives. These findings are confirmed in a more general set-up through a series of Monte Carlo experiments. 相似文献

Summary: In this paper the seasonal unit root test of Hylleberg et al. (1990) is generalized to cover a heterogenous panel. The procedure follows the work of Im, Pesaran and Shin (2002) and is
independently proposed by Otero et al. (2004). Test statistics are given and critical values are obtained by simulation. Moreover, the properties of the tests are
analyzed for different deterministic and dynamic specifications. Evidence is presented that for a small time series dimension
the power is low even for increasing cross section dimension. Therefore, it seems necessary to have a higher time series dimension
than cross section dimension. The test is applied to unemployment data in industrialized countries. In some cases seasonal
unit roots are detected. However, the null hypotheses of panel seasonal unit roots are rejected. The null hypothesis of a
unit root at the zero frequency is not rejected, thereby supporting the presence of hysteresis effects.

One of the most well-known facts about unit root testing in time series is that the Dickey–Fuller (DF) test based on ordinary least squares (OLS) demeaned data suffers from low power, and that the use of generalized least squares (GLS) demeaning can lead to substantial power gains. Of course, this development has not gone unnoticed in the panel unit root literature. However, while the potential of using GLS demeaning is widely recognized, oddly enough, there are still no theoretical results available to facilitate a formal analysis of such demeaning in the panel data context. The present article can be seen as a reaction to this. The purpose is to evaluate the effect of GLS demeaning when used in conjuncture with the pooled OLS t-test for a unit root, resulting in a panel analog of the time series DF–GLS test. A key finding is that the success of GLS depend critically on the order in which the dependent variable is demeaned and first-differenced. If the variable is demeaned prior to taking first-differences, power is maximized by using GLS demeaning, whereas if the differencing is done first, then OLS demeaning is preferred. Furthermore, even if the former demeaning approach is used, such that GLS is preferred, the asymptotic distribution of the resulting test is independent of the tuning parameters that characterize the local alternative under which the demeaning performed. Hence, the demeaning can just as well be performed under the unit root null hypothesis. In this sense, GLS demeaning under the local alternative is redundant. 相似文献

在STAR模型框架下,考虑时间序列具有线性确定性趋势成分,本文建立了一个递归退势单位根检验统计量,推导了其渐近分布;并在考虑初始条件情形下,对递归退势、OLS和GLS退势单位根检验统计量的有限样本性质进行了细致的比较研究。若忽略初始条件的影响,GLS退势和递归退势单位根检验统计量的检验势都显著高于OLS退势。随着初始条件的增大,GLS退势单位根检验统计量的检验势下降得比较厉害,递归退势单位根检验统计量的检验势较为稳定,且在样本量较大情形下更具优势。 相似文献

A unit root has important long-run implications for many time series in economics and finance. This paper develops a unit-root test of an ARIMA(p-1, 1, q) with drift null process against a trend-stationary ARMA(p, q) alternative process, where the order of the time series is assumed known through previous statistical testing or relevant theory. This test uses a point-optimal test statistic, but it estimates the null and alternative variance-covariance matrices that are used in the test statistic. Consequently, this test approximates a point-optimal test. Simulations show that its small-sample size is close to the nominal test level for a variety of unit-root processes, that it has a robust power curve against a variety of stationary alternatives, that its combined small-sample size and power properties are highly competitive with previous unit-root tests, and that it is robust to conditional heteroskedasticity. An application to post-Second World War real per capita gross domestic product is provided. 相似文献

This article develops a statistic for testing the null of a linear unit root process against the alternative of a stationary exponential smooth transition autoregressive model. The asymptotic distribution of the test is shown to be nonstandard but nuisance parameter-free and hence critical values are obtained by simulations. Simulations show that the proposed statistic has considerable power under various data generating scenarios. Applications to real exchange rates also illustrate the ability of our test to reject null of unit root when some of the alternative tests do not. 相似文献

Multivariate unit root tests for the VAR model have been commonly used in time series analysis. Several unit root tests were developed. Most of the estimators of coefficient matrices developed in the VAR model are obtained using ordinary least squares estimators. In this paper, we suggest a multivariate unit root test based on a modified weighted symmetric estimator. Using a limited Monte Carlo simulation, we compare the powers of the new test statistic and the test statistic suggested in Fuller (1996). 相似文献

The Cauchy estimator of an autoregressive root uses the sign of the first lag as instrumental variable. The resulting IV t-type statistic follows a standard normal limiting distribution under a unit root case even under unconditional heteroscedasticity, if the series to be tested has no deterministic trends. The standard normality of the Cauchy test is exploited to obtain a standard normal panel unit root test under cross-sectional dependence and time-varying volatility with an orthogonalization procedure. The article’s analysis of the joint N, T asymptotics of the test suggests that (1) N should be smaller than T and (2) its local power is competitive with other popular tests. To render the test applicable when N is comparable with, or larger than, T, shrinkage estimators of the involved covariance matrix are used. The finite-sample performance of the discussed procedures is found to be satisfactory. 相似文献

本文采用似然比类检验统计量进行面板单位根检验(简称为LR检验)研究,在局部备择假设成立的条件下,推导了其在无确定项、仅含截距项以及存在线性时间趋势项三种模型下所对应的渐近分布与局部渐近势函数。Monte Carlo模拟结果显示,当面板数据中含确定项(截距项或时间趋势项)时,LR检验水平比LLC和IPS检验水平更接近于给定的显著性检验水平;此外,当面板数据中包含发散个体时,经水平修正后的LR检验势要远远高于经水平修正后的LLC与IPS检验势,其中,经水平修正后的LLC与IPS检验势接近于零。 相似文献

首先对单位根检验的两类常见的数据生成系统进行比较,然后利用蒙特卡洛实验研究了时间序列单位根检验式的设定问题。研究发现在利用DF检验和DF-GLS检验进行时间序列的单位根检验时,检验式设定错误直接影响着检验结果,尤其在推断时间序列是趋势平稳过程还是有时间趋势项的随机游走过程或有二阶时间趋势多项式的随机游走过程时,检验式的错误设定很容易将趋势平稳过程误判为非平稳过程。 相似文献

In this article, we propose various tests for serial correlation in fixed-effects panel data regression models with a small number of time periods. First, a simplified version of the test suggested by Wooldridge (2002) and Drukker (2003) is considered. The second test is based on the Lagrange Multiplier (LM) statistic suggested by Baltagi and Li (1995), and the third test is a modification of the classical Durbin–Watson statistic. Under the null hypothesis of no serial correlation, all tests possess a standard normal limiting distribution as N tends to infinity and T is fixed. Analyzing the local power of the tests, we find that the LM statistic has superior power properties. Furthermore, a generalization to test for autocorrelation up to some given lag order and a test statistic that is robust against time dependent heteroskedasticity are proposed. 相似文献

内容提要:针对非线性模型的单位根检验中存在的问题,本文认为非线性模型的单位根检验不应该在AR模型中进行,而应该在非线性模型中进行。以LSTAR(1)模型为例,本文给出了在其中进行单位根检验的统计量及其临界值。用蒙特卡洛试验证实,本文提出的单位根检验统计量的功效明显高于DF单位根检验,只有当非平稳特征十分明显时,DF检验才能检测出其中的单位根,因此,在非线性模型中进行单位根检验是必要的。 相似文献

A common financial trading strategy involves exploiting mean-reverting behaviour of paired asset prices. Since a unit root test can be used to determine which pairs of assets appear to exhibit mean-reverting behaviour, we propose a new Bayesian unit root to detect the presence of a local unit root vs. mean-reverting nonlinear smooth transition heteroskedastic alternative hypotheses. This test procedure is based on the posterior odds. For simultaneous estimation and inference, we employ an adaptive Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo scheme, which utilizes a mixture prior specification to solve the likelihood identification problem of the smoothing parameter and the autoregressive coefficient with a unit root. The size and power properties of the proposed method are examined via a simulation study. An empirical study examines the mean-reverting behaviour of price differential between stock and future. 相似文献

The exact maximum likelihood estimate provides a test statistic for the unit root test that is more powerful than the usual least-squares approach. In this article, a new derivation is given for the asymptotic distribution of this test statistic that is simpler and more direct than the previous method. The response surface regression method is used to obtain a fast algorithm that computes accurate finite-sample critical values. This algorithm is available in the R package mleur that is available on CRAN. The empirical power of the new test is shown to be much better than the usual test not only in the normal case but also for innovations generated from an infinite variance stable distribution as well as for innovations generated from a GARCH(1,1) process. 相似文献

为了深入研究具有高次趋势特征序列的单位根(平稳性)检验问题,研究了高次趋势平稳过程和带高次趋势的单位根过程的概念及其时间趋势特征。结果表明,带漂移的单位根过程实际具有线性趋势,带k(k≥1)次趋势的单位根过程实际具有k+1次趋势;而k(k≥0)次(趋势)平稳过程则具有k次趋势。无论是趋势平稳过程,还是单位根过程,都可以通过差分变换确定其时间趋势特征。 相似文献

In this paper, we investigate the problem of testing for the equality of two distributions. We employ a two-sample Jackknife Empirical Likelihood (JEL) approach to construct a test statistic whose limiting distribution is Chi-square distribution with degree of freedom 1, no matter what the data dimension (fixed) is. A variety of synthetic data experiments demonstrate that our JEL test statistic performs very well, with a very neat asymptotic distribution under the null hypothesis. Furthermore, we apply the test procedure to a real dataset to obtain competitive results. 相似文献

For aggregated time series unit root tests are routinely applied to choose among trend and difference stationary models. Recent
work demonstrates that such test can also be applied for testing panel data. However, it is well known that disaggregated
data often exhibit a considerable amount of heterogeneity so that standard tests may perform poorly. To account for the heterogeneity
in the data we allow for individual specific deterministics, that is, we let the time trends vary across the cross section
units. It is shown that standard GMM estimators suggested for the dynamic panel data model may fail to give a valid test procedure.
To overcome this difficulty, a modified GMM estimator is suggested. In a Monte Carlo study the finite sample properties of
the alternative tests are compared. 相似文献

This paper proposes a new test for the error cross-sectional uncorrelatedness in a two-way error components panel data model based on large panel data sets. By virtue of an existing statistic under the raw data circumstance, an analogous test statistic using the within residuals of the model is constructed. We show that the resulting statistic needs bias correction to make valid inference, and then propose a method to implement feasible correction. Simulation shows that the test based on the feasible bias-corrected statistic performs well. Additionally, we employ a real data set to illustrate the use of the new test. 相似文献
