autocorrelation

Postby indiex » Thu Aug 05, 2010 9:53 am

Hi,
I have 6 variables: One dependent & 5 independent. I have used multiple regression analysis.

Data is statioanary on 2nd difference.
I'm facing problem of AUTOCORRELATION.What methods should I used to eliminate autocorrelation.

Dependent Variable: D2LGDP
Method: Least Squares
Date: 08/04/10 Time: 19:22
Sample (adjusted): 3 55
Included observations: 53 after adjustments

Non-normality and collinearity are NOT problems!

Take a look at "AR(1)" in the help system.

thanksfor your reply.

I tried to estimte following equation in order to remove autocorrelation problem.

d2lgdp-c(2)*d2lgdp(-1) c(1)*(1-c(2)) c(3)*(d2lpc-c(2)*d2lpc(-1)) c(4)*(d2lge-c(2)*d2lge(-1)) c(5)*(d2lgfcf-c(2)*d2lgfcf(-1)) c(6)*(d2lfdi-c(2)*d2lfdi(-1)) c(7)*(d2lne-c(2)*d2lne(-1))

Error message pops up saying: Near Singular Matrix

I did try to rearrange equation but nothigns happening.

Please help.
