Testing for Cointegrating Rank via Model Selection: Evidence from 165 Data Sets
Badi H. Baltagi and Zijun Wang
July 2006
Abstract:
The model selection approach has been proposed as an alternative to the
popular tests for cointegration such as the residual-based ADF test and the
system-based trace test. Using information criteria, we conduct
cointegration tests on 165 data sets used in published studies. The
empirical results demonstrate the usefulness of the model selection approach
for applied researchers.
