Dear all


I have problem to use ZAUROOT test! I already installed SAUROOT add-ins in my eviews 7. but when I open the object of the series, there is not ZAUROOT option! but in proc there is add-ins option and it shows ZAUROOT test, but it does not work!

I appreciate alot if you help me that how can I run this test on eviews?

Best wishes
Niaz

Could you be more specific as to what "does not work" means?

Thanks for your prompt reply!
I mean that when I click on Zivot and andewrs option which is built in "proc" of the series nothing happen and I dont see any windowns be opened to specify ZAUROOT properties and run the model. I would appreciate if you tell me is it the true way that Im using to do ZAUROOT?

Best

Nothing happens at all? When you click on Proc->Add-ins->Zivot-Andrews unit root test, a dialog should pop up asking you to specify the test.

as the last question, would you please guide me to interprete the results. here I have some confusing results, for example my t-statistics is -2.59 and 10% critical value is -4.58, therefore the null can not be rejected, but the pvalue is 0.08 which indicates that the null is rejected at 10% significance level!

Dear Gareth,

When I apply the ZAURoot add-in the printout says that "Null Hypothesis: LNGDPPC has a unit root with a structural break ...". Why is that? Isn't the null hypothesis a random walk without structural break?

Kind regards,

László
