Testing for Seasonal Unit Roots
This paper examines, both theoretically and through Monte Carlo analysis, the implications of applying the HEGY seasonal root tests to a process that is periodically integrated. As an important special case, the random walk process is also considered. In the context of the HEGY regression, the asymptotic distribution of the zero frequency test statistic is dependent on the coefficients of the p...
متن کاملTesting for seasonal unit roots in monthly panels of time series
We consider the problem of testing for seasonal unit roots in monthly panel data. To this aim, we generalize the quarterly CHEGY test to the monthly case. This parametric test is contrasted with a new nonparametric test, which is the panel counterpart to the univariate RURS test that relies on counting extrema in time series. All methods are applied to an empirical data set on tourism in Austri...
متن کاملGeneral Diagnostic Tests for Cross Section Dependence in Panels
General Diagnostic Tests for Cross Section Dependence in Panels This paper proposes simple tests of error cross section dependence which are applicable to a variety of panel data models, including stationary and unit root dynamic heterogeneous panels with short T and large N. The proposed tests are based on average of pair-wise correlation coefficients of the OLS residuals from the individual r...
متن کاملTesting for Unit Roots in Small Panels with Short-run and Long-run Cross-sectional Dependencies
An IV approach, using as instruments nonlinear transformations of the lagged levels, is explored to test for unit roots in panels with general dependency and heterogeneity across cross-sectional units. We allow not only for the cross-sectional dependencies of innovations, but also for the presence of cointegration across cross-sectional levels. Unbalanced panels and panels with differing indivi...
متن کاملUnit roots: Identification and testing in micro panels
We consider a number of unit root tests for micro panels where the number of individuals is typically large, but the number of time periods is often very small. As we discuss, the presence of a unit root is closely related to the identification of parameters of interest in this context. Calculations of asymptotic local power and Monte Carlo evidence indicate that two simple t-tests based on ord...
