DATA-DRIVEN RATE-OPTIMAL SPECIFICATION TESTING IN REGRESSION MODELS

Guerre, Emmanuel; Lavergne, Pascal - EconWPA - 2004

We propose new data-driven smooth tests for a parametric regression function. The smoothing parameter is selected through a new criterion that favors a large smoothing parameter under the null hypothesis. The resulting test is adaptive rate-optimal and consistent against Pitman local...

Estimating Short and Long Run Relationships: A Guide to the Applied Economist

Rao, Bhaskara - EconWPA - 2005

Many applied economists face problems in selecting an appropriate technique to estimate short and long run relationships with the time series methods. This paper reviews three alternative approaches viz., general to specific (GETS), vector autoregressions (VAR) and the vector error correction...

Subsampling Cointegration Ranks in Large Systems

Pu, Chen; Chihying, Hsiao - EconWPA - 2005

In this paper we investigate the possibility of the application of subsampling procedure for testing cointegration … distribution and nuisance parameters in testing for cointegration rank without an explicitly formulated structural model. The … cointegration rank in large scale models, where the standard procedures hits already its limit. For empirical relevant cases our …

Fitting Equilibrium Search Models to Labor Market Data

Bowlus, Audra J.; Kiefer, Nicholas M.; Neumann, George R. - EconWPA - 1996

The essential idea of equilibrium search models of labour market behaviour is that wage policy matters. In contrast, the stylized neoclassical competitive model predicts that firms paying a wage above the competitive equilibrium will disappear; those offering less will attract no workers. The...
