Abstract

This study applies the Sequential Panel Selection Method (SPSM) proposed by Chortareas and Kapetanios (2009) to test the validity of hysteresis of unemployment for a sample of Taiwan’s 20 regions semiannual from 1993 to 2012. SPSM classifies the whole panel into a group of stationary countries and a group of non-stationary countries. In so doing, we can clearly identify how many and which series in the panel are stationary processes. We propose a Panel KSS test with a Fourier function for the SPSM in our empirical study, the results of which indicate that natural rate of unemployment holds true for most of the 20 regions studied. Our results have important policy implications for Taiwan’s 20 regions in this study. Classification-JEL:
