Trends and random walks in macroeconomics time series: The unit root test considerations [PDF]
In the time series econometric literature, data generation and stationary are important issues in model selection and estimation method. Difference Stationary and Trend Stationary processes are data generation procedures.

Unit Root Testing with Slowly Varying Trends [PDF]
A unit root test is proposed for time series with a general nonlinear deterministic trend component. It is shown that asymptotically the pooled OLS estimator of overlapping blocks filters out any trend component that satisfies some Lipschitz condition.

Bounds, Breaks and Unit Root Tests [PDF]
The paper addresses the unit root testing when the range of the time series is limited and considering the presence of multiple structural breaks. The structural breaks can affect the level and/or the boundaries of the time series. The paper proposes five unit root test statistics, whose limiting distribution is shown to depend on the number and ...

Efficient Tests for an Autoregressive Unit Root [PDF]
The asymptotic power envelope is derived for point-optimal tests of a unit root in the autoregressive representation of a Gaussian time series under various trend specifications. We propose a family of tests whose asymptotic power functions are tangent to the power envelope at one point and are never far below the envelope.

Tests for Unit Roots and the Initial Observation [PDF]
The paper analyzes the impact of the initial observation on the problem of testing for unit roots. To this end, we derive a family of optimal tests that maximize a weighted average power criterion with respect to the initial observation. We then investigate the relationship of this optimal family to unit root tests in an asymptotic framework.

ARE THE REAL GDP SERIES IN ASIAN COUNTRIES NONSTATIONARY OR NONLINEAR STATIONARY? [PDF]
This paper checks whether per capita real gross domestic product (GDP) series in 16 Asian countries are nonstationary or nonlinear and globally stationary during the period from 1970 to 2009, by applying the nonlinear unit root tests developed by ...

Are Current Accounts of Asian Economies Mean-reverting?: Nonlinear Unit Root Test Approach
This paper tests the mean reverting property of current account in the financial crisis-affected 5 counties of southeast Asia using nonlinear unit root tests of Park and shintani(2004). Our approach is based on the idea that a conventional unit root test
