This paper concerns goodness-of-fit test for semiparametric copula models. Our contribution is two-fold: we first propose a new test constructed via the comparison between "in-sample" and "out-of-sample" pseudolikelihoods, which avoids the use of any probability integral transformations. Under...

This paper proposes a version of the DF-GLS test that incorporates up to two breaks in the intercept, namely the DF-GLSTB test. While the asymptotic properties of the DF-GLS test remain valid, the presence of changes in the intercept has an impact on the small sample properties of the test....

In an important class of econometric problems, researchers select a target parameter by maximizing the Euclidean norm of a data-dependent vector. Examples that can be cast into this frame include threshold regression models with estimated thresholds and structural break models with estimated...
