Assunto: [Gretl-users] Lag Order for ADF Test

 

Dear Gretl Team,

 

I would suggest a change in the ADF test (through the GUI). When Gretl asks for the lag order I think it would be nice to put a default value for the lag order (also leaving the option "test down from maximum lag order") selected by default.

 

Looking at EViews (ADF test)  and R (Phillips-Perron test), I'd discovered that they use the following default, as suggested by Schwert (Tests for Unit Roots: A Monte Carlo Investigation, Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 1989, p.9):

 

scalar adf_lag = int(12*($nobs/100)^(1/4))

 

I really think that this would be nice for Gretl GUI users.

 

Best regards,
