A simple panel unit root test in the presence of cross-section dependence
TLDR
In this paper, a simple alternative where the standard ADF regressions are augmented with the cross section averages of lagged levels and first-differences of the individual series is proposed, and it is shown that the individual CADF statistics are asymptotically similar and do not depend on the factor loadings.Abstract:
A number of panel unit root tests that allow for cross section dependence have been proposed in the literature that use orthogonalization type procedures to asymptotically eliminate the cross dependence of the series before standard panel unit root tests are applied to the transformed series. In this paper we propose a simple alternative where the standard ADF regressions are augmented with the cross section averages of lagged levels and first-differences of the individual series. New asymptotic results are obtained both for the individual CADF statistics, and their simple averages. It is shown that the individual CADF statistics are asymptotically similar and do not depend on the factor loadings. The limit distribution of the average CADF statistic is shown to exist and its critical values are tabulated. Small sample properties of the proposed test are investigated by Monte Carlo experiments. The proposed test is applied to a panel of 17 OECD real exchange rate series as well as to log real earnings of households in the PSID data.read more

Price setting in online markets: Basic facts, international comparisons, and cross-border integration
TL;DR: In this article, basic facts about prices in online markets in the United States and Canada, which is a rapidly growing segment of the retail sector, are discussed and compared to prices in regular stores, prices are more flexible and exhibit stronger pass-through (60-75 percent) and faster convergence in response to movements of the nominal exchange rate.

Are fluctuations in energy variables permanent or transitory? A survey of the literature on the integration properties of energy consumption and production
TL;DR: This article reviewed the empirical literature on the integration properties of energy consumption and production and discussed the implications of whether energy variables contain a unit root and examined how results differ according to the specific unit root or stationarity test employed.

Does export product quality and renewable energy induce carbon dioxide emissions: Evidence from leading complex and renewable energy economies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the dynamic interdependence between CO2 emissions, real gross domestic product (GDP), renewable and non-renewable energy generation, urbanization, and export quality for both the top ten renewable energy and top ten economic complexity index (ECI) countries.

Oil price shocks and renewable energy transition: Empirical evidence from net oil-importing South Asian economies
TL;DR: The causality results implicated that movements in crude oil prices influenced the renewable energy transition process across the concerned South Asian economies, and impose critically important policy implications for attainment of energy security and environmental sustainability in South Asia.

Investigation on the role of economic, social, and political globalization on environment: evidence from CEECs
TL;DR: The findings show that increasing overall globalization, economic globalization, and social globalization increases the carbon emissions while increasing political globalization reduces the environmental pollution.

Testing for a Unit Root in Time Series Regression
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed new tests for detecting the presence of a unit root in quite general time series models, which accommodate models with a fitted drift and a time trend so that they may be used to discriminate between unit root nonstationarity and stationarity about a deterministic trend.

Testing for unit roots in heterogeneous panels
TL;DR: In this article, a unit root test for dynamic heterogeneous panels based on the mean of individual unit root statistics is proposed, which converges in probability to a standard normal variate sequentially with T (the time series dimension) →∞, followed by N (the cross sectional dimension)→∞.

Unit root tests in panel data: asymptotic and finite-sample properties
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider pooling cross-section time series data for testing the unit root hypothesis, and they show that the power of the panel-based unit root test is dramatically higher, compared to performing a separate unit-root test for each individual time series.

Time series analysis
TL;DR: A ordered sequence of events or observations having a time component is called as a time series, and some good examples are daily opening and closing stock prices, daily humidity, temperature, pressure, annual gross domestic product of a country and so on.
