Panel Unit Root Tests Under Cross Sectional Dependence
In this paper alternative approaches for testing the unit root hypothesis in panel data are considered. First, a robust version of the Dickey-Fuller t-statistic under contemporaneous correlated errors is suggested. Second, the GLS t-statistic is considered, which is based on the t-statistic of the transformed model. The asymptotic power of both tests against a sequence of local alternatives is ...
متن کاملPanel Unit Root Tests under Cross-sectional Dependence: an Overview
The increasing availability of new datasets where the time-series dimension and the cross-section dimension are of the same order of magnitude asks for new techniques for the analysis of this peculiar kind of data. In the panel unit root test framework, two generations of tests have been developed: a first generation whose main limit is the assumption of cross-sectional independence across unit...
متن کاملNonlinear IV Panel Unit Root Tests
This paper presents the nonlinear IV methodology as an effective inferential basis for nonstationary panels. The nonlinear IV method resolves the inferential difficulties in testing for unit roots arising from the intrinsic heterogeneities and cross-dependencies of panel models. Individual units are allowed to be dependent through correlations among innovations, interrelatedness of short-run dy...
متن کاملHomogenous panel unit root tests under cross sectional dependence: Finite sample modifications and the wild bootstrap
We investigate the performance of some homogenous first and second generation panel unit root tests under alternative forms of cross sectional dependence. We formalize contemporaneous correlation through factor models, spatial autoregressive error models and combinations thereof. Our findings confirm that while the first generation test of Levin, Lin, and Chu (2002) suffers from substantial siz...
متن کاملPanel unit root tests of firm size and its growth
This paper investigates Gibrat’s law by using a panel unit root test, as a panel unit root can increase power in contrast to a conventional individual ADF test. At first this paper uses the panel unit root test to testify Gibrat’s law under independent and identical distribution, with the test results rejecting the null hypothesis of Gibrat’s law. Independent and identical distributions are not...
