A novel simulation-based methodology is proposed to test the validity of a set of marginal time series models, where the dependence structure between the time series is taken "directly" from the observed data. The procedure is useful when one wants to summarize the test results for several time...

is discussed in terms of the leading example of bootstrap-based hypothesis testing in the well-known first order auto … conditions and their implications for possible improvements in terms of (empirical) size and power for bootstrap-based testing …, when compared to asymptotic testing, are illustrated by simulations. Following this, an overview of selected recent …

This paper considers the question whether it is possible, using information about only the distribution of earnings, to identify some of the labour supply incentive effects of a tax and transfer system.

The asymmetric moving average model (asMA) is extended to allow forasymmetric quadratic conditional heteroskedasticity (asQGARCH). Theasymmetric parametrization of the conditional variance encompassesthe quadratic GARCH model of Sentana (1995). We introduce a framework fortesting asymmetries in...

In this paper, we present a new time series model, whichdescribes self-exciting threshold autoregressive (SETAR) nonlinearityand seasonality simultaneously. The model is termed multiplicativeseasonal SETAR (SEASETAR). It can be viewed as a special case of ageneral non-multiplicativeSETAR model...

(Panel) Smooth Transition Regressions substantially gained in popularity due to their flexibility in modeling regression coefficients as homogeneous or heterogeneous functions of transition variables. In the estimation process, however, researchers typically face a trade-off in the sense that a...

We develop and evaluate sequential testing tools for a class of nonparametric tests for predictability of financial … where a researcher conducts testing as new observations arrive. Throughout, we elaborate on both two-sided and one …-sided testing, focusing on linear monitoring boundaries that are continuations of horizontal lines corresponding to retrospective …

Existing specification tests for conditional heteroskedasticity are derived under the assumption that the density of the innovation, or standardized error, is Gaussian, despite the fact that many recent empirical studies provide evidence that this density is not Gaussian. We obtain specification...
