Residual-Based Finite-Sample Misspecification Tests in Multivariate Regressions with Applications to Asset Pricing Models
In Multivariate Linear Regression (MLR) models, multi-equation diagnostic tests pose some problems not encountered in the analysis of univariate models. In particular, test size distortions grow quickly as the number of cross-equation correlations increases. Despite the widespread recognition of this problem, finite sample multivariate specification tests are rare. In this paper, we propose a g...
متن کاملFunctional Coefficient Models under Unit Root Behavior
Abstract. We analyze the statistical properties of nonparametrically estimated functions in a functional-coefficient model if the data has a unit root. We show that the estimated function converges at a faster rate than under the stationary case. However, the estimator has a mixed normal distribution so that point-wise confidence intervals are calculated using the usual normal distribution theo...
متن کاملVariable Selection and Functional Form Uncertainty in Cross-Country Growth Regressions
Regression analyses of cross-country economic growth data are complicated by two main forms of model uncertainty: the uncertainty in selecting explanatory variables and the uncertainty in specifying the functional form of the regression function. Most discussions in the literature address these problems independently, yet a joint treatment is essential. We perform this joint treatment by extend...
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 کاملA New Unit Root Test against Asymmetric ESTAR Nonlinearity with Smooth Breaks
T his paper proposes a new unit root test against the alternative of symmetric or asymmetric exponential smooth transition autoregressive (AESTAR) nonlinearity that accounts for multiple smooth breaks. We provide small sample properties which indicate the test statistics have good empirical size and power. Also, we compared small sample properties of the test statistics with Christop...
