dfgls¶

Purpose¶

Test for unit root in univariate time series.

Format¶

{ t_stat, z_crit } = dfgls(y[, max_lags, trend])¶

Parameters

y (Nx1 vector) – data.
max_lags (scalar) – Optional input, maximum number of lags to be tested. Default = 0.
trend (scalar) – Optional input, 0 = no trend, 1 = trend. Default = 0.

Returns

tstat (matrix) – AR(1) t-statistic.
zcrit (matrix) – Elliot, Rothenberg and Stock (1996) critical values for the GLS detrended unit root test at the 1%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10% significance level.

Example¶

new;
cls;
library tsmt;

//Load Enders data
yt = loadd( getGAUSSHome() $+ "pkgs/tsmt/examples/erstest.fmt";
yt = trimr(yt, 1, 0);

//Now run full test
{adf_stat, crit_mat}=dfgls(yt[., 2], 0, 1);

print "The GAUSS DFGLS stats:";
adf_stat;

print "DFGLS stat reported by Enders:-3.154";
print "The ERS critical values:";
crit_mat;
