Interaction Between Unit Roots and Structural Breaks

In this paper, we review the recent econometric methods related to unit root tests. The central idea is the interaction between structural breaks and unit roots. We consider the standard Dickey-Fuller test and its modifications that allow under the alternative hypothesis one or multiple structural breaks. The break dates are endogenous and the number of breaks may be unknown. We investigate the size and power of these tests. Thus we consider the problem of estimating the number of structural breaks and the problem of estimating the break dates. A second type of test is reviewed, the LM unit root tests that allow under the null and the alternative hypothesis one or two unknown breaks. We also discuss the tests of structural breaks built for a stationary variables. We distinguish two types of tests: tests for a single break and tests for multiple breaks.
Unit Roots, Cointegration, and Structural Change

Author: G. S. Maddala
language: en
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Release Date: 1998
Time series analysis has undergone many changes in recent years with the advent of unit roots and cointegration. Maddala and Kim present a comprehensive review of these important developments and examine structural change. The volume provides an analysis of unit root tests, problems with unit root testing, estimation of cointegration systems, cointegration tests, and econometric estimation with integrated regressors. The authors also present the Bayesian approach to these problems and bootstrap methods for small-sample inference. The chapters on structural change discuss the problems of unit root tests and cointegration under structural change, outliers and robust methods, the Markov-switching model and Harvey's structural time series model. Unit Roots, Cointegration and Structural Change is a major contribution to Themes in Modern Econometrics, of interest both to specialists and graduate and upper-undergraduate students.
