The robustness of tests for seasonal differencing to structural breaks
نویسنده
چکیده
Monte Carlo simulations are used to compare the power properties of three simple tests for the seasonal differencing filter when the data contain seasonal mean shifts. Overall, the results favour the HEGY–GLN test. 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

INTRODUCTION Hydrologic drought in the sense of deficient river flow is defined as the periods that river flow does not meet the needs of planned programs for system management. Drought is generally considered as periods with insignificant precipitation, soil moisture and water resources for sustaining and supplying the socioeconomic activities of a region. Thus, it is difficult to give a univ...
متن کاملA New Nonlinear Specification of Structural Breaks for Money Demand in Iran
In a structural time series regression model, binary variables have been used to quantify qualitative or categorical quantitative events such as politic and economic structural breaks, regions, age groups and etc. The use of the binary dummy variables is not reasonable because the effect of an event decreases (increases) gradually over time not at once. The simple and basic idea in this paper i...
متن کاملTrue vs . Spurious Long Memory : A Monte Carlo Study with an Application to Credit Data ∗
A common feature of financial time series is their strong persistence. However, long memory may just be the spurious effect of the presence of one or more structural breaks. There exist four testing procedures to evaluate this issue. All tests are constructed under the null of true long memory versus the alternative of spurious long memory induced by a structural break. We consider the " Tempor...
متن کاملInvestigating the Structural Changes of Tax in Iran
S tructural change is defined as a change in the relative weight of the important constituents of the macro-economic indicator such as production, taxes, imports and exports, workforce etc. Since the structure change is one of the main reasons for the growth and economic development of countries, the investigation of the trend of changes in economic important constituents is important. Tax...
متن کاملFinite sample effects of pure seasonal mean shifts on Dickey-Fuller tests: a simulation study
In this paper, it is demonstrated by simulation that, contrary to a widely held belief, pure seasonal mean shifts — i.e., seasonal structural breaks which affect only the seasonal cycle — really do matter for DickeyFuller long-run unit root tests. Both size and power properties are affected by such breaks but using the t-sig method for lag selection induces a stabilizing effect. Although most r...
