Abstract

Inferences from tests for non-stationarity depend critically on whether and how breaks and/or non-linearities are specified. Recent work has shown that wavelet transformations that separate a variable’s high and low frequency components can enhance the performance of unit root and stationarity tests. This note provides response surface estimates of finite sample, lag-adjusted critical values and approximate probability values for an Augmented Dickey–Fuller type wavelet test that includes a Fourier term allowing for smooth breaks in the series. Applications highlight the practical benefits.
