This paper investigates the accuracy of bootstrap-based bias correction of persistence measures for long memory fractionally integrated processes. The bootstrap method is based on the semi-parametric sieve approach, with the dynamics in the long memory process captured by an autoregressive...

This paper investigates the accuracy of bootstrap-based inference in the case of long memory fractionally integrated processes. The re-sampling method is based on the semi-parametric sieve approach, whereby the dynamics in the process used to produce the bootstrap draws are captured by an...

This article describes a new Stata routine, xtbcfe, that performs the iterative bootstrap-based bias correction for the fixed effects (FE) estimator in dynamic panels proposed by Everaert and Pozzi (Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, 2007). We first simplify the core of their algorithm...

The detection of long-range dependence in time series analysis is an important task to which this paper contributes by showing that whilst the theoretical definition of a long-memory (or long-range dependent) process is based on the autocorrelation function, it is not possible for long memory to...

It is shown that the sum of the sample autocorrelation function at lag h≥1 is always −12 for any stationary time series with arbitrary length T≥2 (Hassani, 2009 [1]). In this paper, the distribution of a set of the sample autocorrelation function using the properties of this quantity is...

In this paper, we propose a hybrid bootstrap procedure for augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) tests for the presence of a unit root. This hybrid proposal combines a time domain parametric autoregressive fit to the data and a nonparametric correction applied in the frequency domain to capture features...

In this paper we propose a procedure that uses a single-index model to construct interpolation intervals for a general class of linear processes. We present an extensive Monte Carlo experiment which studies the finite sample properties of this procedure. Finally, we illustrate the performance of...

This paper proposes three new panel unit root tests based on Zaykin et al. (2002)’s truncated product method. The first one assumes constant correlation between p-values and the latter two use sieve bootstrap that allows for general forms of cross-section dependence in the panel units. Monte...

This paper considers the problem of testing for normality of the marginal law of univariate and multivariate stationary and weakly dependent random processes using a bootstrap-based Anderson-Darling test statistic. The finite-sample properties of the test are assessed via Monte Carlo...

In this paper we will investigate the consequences of applying the sieve bootstrap under regularity conditions that are sufficiently general to encompass both fractionally integrated and non-invertible processes. The sieve bootstrap is obtained by approximating the data generating process by an...
