A test of the null of integer integration against the alternative of fractional integration
整数单整原假设对分数单整备择的检验
This paper proposes a test of the null of integer integration against the alternative of fractional integration. The null of integer integration is satisfied if the series is either I(0) or I(1). We reject the null if the KPSS test rejects I(0) and a unit root test rejects I(1). We suggest a new unit root test (a lower-tail KPSS test applied to the differenced data) to use in this procedure. We provide critical values under standard asymptotics and fixed-b asymptotics. We…
