LM Tests of Spatial Dependence based on Bootstrap Critical Values
To test the existence of spatial dependence in an econometric model, a convenient test is the Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test. However, evidence shows that, in finite samples, the LM test referring to asymptotic critical values may suffer from the problems of size distortion and low power, which become worse with a denser spatial weight matrix. In this paper, residual-based bootstrap methods are ...
متن کاملNon-normality and heteroscedasticity robust LM tests of spatial dependence
The standard LM tests for spatial dependence in linear and panel regressions are derived under the normality and homoskedasticity assumptions of the regression disturbances. Hence, they may not be robust against non-normality or heteroskedasticity of the disturbances. Following Born and Breitung (2011), we introduce general methods to modify the standard LM tests so that they become robust agai...

متن کاملEmpirically relevant critical values for hypothesis tests: A bootstrap approach
Tests of statistical hypotheses can be based on either of two critical values: the Type I critical value or the size-corrected critical value. The former usually depends on unknown population parameters and cannot be evaluated exactly in applications, but it can often be estimated very accurately by using the bootstrap. The latter does not depend on unknown population parameters but is likely t...
متن کاملBOOTSTRAP CRITICAL VALUES FOR TESTS BASED ON THE SMOOTHED MAXIMUM SCORE ESTIMATOR by
The smoothed maximum score estimator of the coefficient vector of a binary response model is consistent and asymptotically normal under weak distributional assumptions. However, the differences between the true and nominal levels of tests based on smoothed maximum score estimates can be very large in finite samples when first-order asymptotics are used to obtain critical values. This paper show...
