CADFpvalues {CADFtest}R Documentation

p-values of the CADF test.

Description

The asymptotic p-values of the Hansen's (1995) Covariate-Augmented Dickey Fuller (CADF) test for a unit root are computed using the approach outlined in Costantini et al. (2007).

Usage

CADFpvalues(t0, rho2 = 0.5, type=c("trend", "drift", "none")) 

Arguments

t0 the value of the test statistic;
rho2 the estimated value of the long-run correlation;
type defines the deterministic kernel used in the test. It accepts the values used in package urca. It specifies if the underlying model must be with linear trend ("trend", the default), with constant ("drift") or without constant ("none").

Value

p.value, a scalar containing the estimated asymptotic p-value of the test.
