Book Synopsis Unit-Root Testing Against the Alternative Hypothesis of Up to Structural Breaks by : George Kapetanios
Download or read book Unit-Root Testing Against the Alternative Hypothesis of Up to Structural Breaks written by George Kapetanios. This book was released on 2005. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we provide tests for the unit-root hypothesis against the occurrence of an unspecified number of breaks which may be larger than 2 but smaller than the maximum number of breaks allowed, m, in univariate time-series models. The advocated procedure is considerably less computationally intensive than those widely used in the literature. We provide critical values for the test and examine its small sample properties through Monte Carlo experiments.
