In this paper we propose a model selection strategy for a univariate periodic autoregressive time series which involves tests for one or more unit roots and for parameter restrictions corresponding to seasonal unit roots and multiple unit roots at the zero frequency. Examples of models that are...

This paper discusses the properties of the univariate Dickey-Fuller test and the Johansen test for the cointegrating rank when there exist additive outlying observations in the time series. The authors provide analytical as well as numerical evidence that additive outliners may produce spurious...
