Detection of structural breaks in linear dynamic panel data models
This paper develops a method for testing for the presence of a single structural break in dynamic panel data models with a multi-factor error structure. The test statistic is developed by combining a modified version of the GMM approach of Robertson and Sarafidis (2015) with the testing procedure of De Wachter and Tzavalis (2012). We focus on the case where N is large and T fixed. The asymptoti...
متن کاملUsing Artificial Neural Network Approximations Testing for structural breaks in nonlinear dynamic models using artificial neural network approximations
In this paper we suggest a number of statistical tests based on neural network models, that are designed to be powerful against structural breaks in otherwise stationary time series processes while allowing for a variety of nonlinear specifications for the dynamic model underlying them. It is clear that in the presence of nonlinearity standard tests of structural breaks for linear models may no...
متن کاملTesting for Structural Breaks in the Evaluation of Programs
A youth homicide reduction initiative in Boston in the mid-1990s poses particular difficulties for program evaluation because it did not have a control group and the exact implementation date is unknown. A standard methodology in program evaluation is to use time series variation to compare preand post-program outcomes. Such an approach is not valid, however, when the timing of a potential brea...
متن کاملTesting for Structural Breaks via Ordinal Pattern Dependence
We propose new concepts in order to analyze and model the dependence structure between two time series. Our methods rely exclusively on the order structure of the data points. Hence, the methods are stable under monotone transformations of the time series and robust against small perturbations or measurement errors. Ordinal pattern dependence can be characterized by four parameters. We propose ...
متن کاملTESTING FOR AUTOCORRELATION IN UNEQUALLY REPLICATED FUNCTIONAL MEASUREMENT ERROR MODELS
In the ordinary linear models, regressing the residuals against lagged values has been suggested as an approach to test the hypothesis of zero autocorrelation among residuals. In this paper we extend these results to the both equally and unequally replicated functionally measurement error models. We consider the equally and unequally replicated cases separately, because in the first case the re...
