Hello,
I have a minor question concerning how sample size affects ADF unit root
test results in gretl and other econometric software.
Let me give you an example:
I have a series of T=51, for which ADF test results are all the same in
gretl, R (urca) and JMulTi. Yet when I use a subsample of T=20 (last
twenty observations), test statistics obtained with gretl are
significantly different from those of R and JMulTi (both the latter,
however, produce the same output). Of course, I use the same
deterministic term option and lag lenght for those comparisons.
Is there any particular reason for that situation? Or is it me doing
something wrong?
(I attach data file for those, who'd like to replicate my issue)
Best,
Greg
