Re: [Gretl-users] ADF Test
by artur.tarassow＠googlemail.com
The answer is simple: for the s variable no lags are included. Hence, there is no need to add lagged first difference(s).
You can check this when you allow for lags and deactivate the automatic lag selection option.

Hi,
I've been running the ADF test for 2 variables, however when I view the regression results of the ADF test, it appears to perform it differently for each variable. The outputs for each variable are pasted below. The first one tests the differenced u variable against u_1 and d_u_1 (plus seasonal dummies), which you would expect for the test. However for s, it leaves out the d_s_1 element. I've found this happening with a number of other variables in different models.
Is this still performing a correct ADF test or should I be doing something differently?
Any information you could offer would be hugely appreciated

Gretl error/crash
by (s) Simon Grenville-Wood
Hi,
I'm currently attempting a multinomial logit model on a large sample of panel data.
I'm having a problem where I need to be able to create dummies for each individual in the sample to control for the individual fixed effects.
In order to do so while using the logit model, I need to dummify the person ID (PID) in the sample.
I've opened the gretl console and I enter the following commands:
discrete PID <----transform the variable, 19,421 values, to be discrete
dummify PID <----create dummies for each individual to control for fixed effects
The last command causes gretl to crash, giving a libcairo_32.dll error. This happens on whichever computer I am using. Occasionally, if I use the menus instead of the console, it will give an 'out of memory' error. My PC is definitely sufficiently powerful.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get around this issue?
Thanks,
Simon

Bootstrap VAR models
by alexkakashi＠libero.it
Hi,
I have the following question. Let us consider a trivariate VAR model. The
parameters of the model are estimated using:
system method=sur
equation Y const Y(-1) X(-1) Z(-1)
equation X const Y(-1) X(-1) Z(-1)
equation Z const Y(-1) X(-1) Z(-1)
end system
I'd like study Granger causality from X to Y and the critical values are
calculated using bootstrap method based on residuals. Is this procedure
implemented in gretl?
Best regards.

MLE with endogenously determined moving average
by Johann Jaeckel
A couple of months ago I sent a question regarding a MLE with an
endogenously determined moving average over the list. In response, Allin
provided a generic script for a loop, which was exactly what I needed for
my estimation. (See mail below.)
Now, I would like to add a second independent variable, which, like the
first independent variable, should be split into a short-run (SR) and a
long-run (LR) coefficient:
Y = a + b1*X1_LR + e_(X1_LR) + b2*X1_SR + e_(X1_SR) + b3*X2_LR + e_(X2_LR)
+ b4*X2_SR + e_(X2_SR)
where all of the error terms are i.i.d. disturbances. X1_LR and X2_LR are
centered moving averages of the two independent variables, and X1_SR and
X2_SR are the deviations of the actual series from their moving averages.
As in the baseline model, the length of the moving average should be set
such that the likelihood function is maximized. The loop script below runs
the estimation for 'pmax' times, i.e. the maximum allowed length of the
moving average.
Since I am using the same value of 'pmax' for both independent variables, I
need a loop that runs 'pmax' to the square estimations. Put differently, I
want to determine, for which combination of p for X1 and X2 the likelihood
function is maximized.
Conceptually, this should be a relatively simple addition to the script.
However, I do not know how to add the necessary commands. Any help is
appreciated.

Deterministic trend in VAR
by Muheed Jamaldeen
Hi all,
Just a general VAR related question. When is it appropriate to include
a deterministic time trend in the reduced form VAR? Visually some of the
data series (not all) look like they have trending properties. In any case,
does the inclusion of the time trend matter if the process is stable and
therefore stationary (i.e. the polynomial defined by the determinant of the
autoregressive operator has no roots in and on the complex unit circle)
without the time trend term. Other than unit root tests, is there a better
way to test whether the underlying data generating process has a stochastic
or deterministic process?
I am mainly interested in the impulse responses.
Cheers,
Mj

Decimal Point in Gnuplot
by Henrique Andrade
Dear Gretl Team,
I'm trying to plot some graphs with Gretl for Mac (snapshot 2012-02-07) but
Gnuplot only shows me "." as the decimal sign even though my system
language is Brazilian Portuguese. The only way to plot graphs with "," is
to explicitly use the option (set decimalsign ",") in the gnuplot command.
I can see this behavior on Lion and on Snow Leopard.

[help] How to get the coefficients from SUR or System estimation
by caspisun＠gmail.com
Dear. All
I am struggling how to get the coefficient from the SUR or system
estimation.
I know that, In case of simple regression, If I want to get the
coefficient to recycle it,
Y cosnt X1 X2
after the regression, we could get the coefficient from following command
genr aaa = $coeff(X1)
genr aaa =$coeff(const)
However, I could not find how to get the coefficients from SUR or System
estimation
for example, in the following SUR estimation
================================================
system name="Rotterdam"
equation wdq1 DivisiaQ ddp1 ddp2 ddp3
equation wdq2 DivisiaQ ddp1 ddp2 ddp3
equation wdq3 DivisiaQ ddp1 ddp2 ddp3
end system
restrict "Rotterdam"
b[1,3]-b[2,2]=0
b[1,4]-b[3,2]=0
b[2,4]-b[3,3]=0
end restrict
estimate "Rotterdam" method=sur --iterate
estimate "Rotterdam" method=3sls --iterate
===================================================
Any suggestions?
Sincerely
