Unit Root Tests for Time Series with a Structural Break When the Break Point Is Known
Unit root tests for time series with level shifts are considered. The level shift is assumed to occur at a known time point. In contrast to some other proposals the level shift is modeled as part of the intercept term of the stationary component of the data generation process which is separated from the unit root component. In this framework simple shift functions result in a smooth transition ...
متن کاملChina’s Economic Growth: Evidence from Multiple-break Unit Root Tests
This paper performs multiple-break unit root tests on the data of China’s national and sectoral output and labour productivity, with finite-sample critical values bootstrapped through Monte Carlo simulations. We find strong evidence against the unit-root hypothesis in favour of the segmentedtrend-stationarity alternative. Based on breaking trend functions, the steady-state and transitional grow...
متن کاملUnit Root Tests with Wavelets
This paper develops a wavelet (spectral) approach to testing the presence of a unit root in a stochastic process. The wavelet approach is appealing, since it is based directly on the different behavior of the spectra of a unit root process and that of a short memory stationary process. By decomposing the variance (energy) of the underlying process into the variance of its low frequency componen...
متن کاملTrend Break or Unit Root in GDP of Iran
It has been suggested that existing estimates of the long-run impact of a surprise move in income may have a substantial upward bias due to the presence of a trend break in 1970s (1350s) and 1980s (1360s) gross domestic product (contained oil) data of Iran. This article shows that the statistical evidence does not warrant abandoning the no-trend-break null hypothesis at the 5% significance leve...
متن کاملUnit Root Tests Based On the Robust Estimator
The unit root tests based on the robust estimator for the first-order autoregressive process are proposed and compared with the unit root tests based on the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator. The percentiles of the null distributions of the unit root test are also reported. The empirical probabilities of Type I error and powers of the unit root tests are estimated via Monte Carlo simulatio...
