I don't believe gretl doen not have a --test-downoption in kernel
estimation, which is what I believe KPSS involves.
So-called 'optimal' bandwidth is usually a function of sample size. Some
use rules like 0.75T^(1/3) or 4(T/100)^(2/9). I believe that Schwert
suggested 12((T+1)/100)^(1/4) in picking lags for ADF tests. With respect
to KPSS, I don't know. Longer means less bias and less precision. Shorter
more bias, but greater precision.

Dear Gretl Users,
My question concerns KPSS unit root test. After selecting my serie
and
clicking on KPSS test; the default lag is set to 8.
How do I find the best lag for my test ? Is there an automatic way to
select it ? Is the default lag the best one ?
Thanks a lot for helping !
