Tests for Parameter Instability in Regressions With I(1) Processes
推导了协整回归模型中参数不稳定性检验的LM统计量的大样本分布，扩展了Phillips和Hansen的完全修正估计量，并应用于消费函数、股票价格和利率期限结构三个数据集。
This article derives the large-sample distributions of Lagrange multiplier (LM) tests for parameter instability against several alternatives of interest in the context of cointegrated regression models. The fully modified estimator of Phillips and Hansen is extended to cover general models with stochastic and deterministic trends. The test statistics considered include the SupF test of Quandt, as well as the LM tests of Nyblom and of Nabeya and Tanaka. It is found that the asymptotic distributions depend on the nature of the regressor processes—that is, if the regressors are stochastic or deterministic trends. The distributions are noticeable digfferent from the distributions when the data are weakly dependant. If is also found that the lack of cointegration is a special case of the alternative hypothesis considered (an unstable intecept), so the tests proposed here may also be viewed as a test of the null of cointegration against the alternative of no cointegration. The tests are applied to three data sets—an aggregate consumption function, a present value model of stock prices and divdends, and the term structure of interest rates.
