A new test for structural stability in the linear regression model

We propose a new test for the constancy of regression coefficients in linear models. The test does not require that possible change points be known. We derive the limiting null distribution of the test statistic, prove that the test has non-trivial power against many local alternatives, and show tha...

Zusammenfassung:We propose a new test for the constancy of regression coefficients in linear models. The test does not require that possible change points be known. We derive the limiting null distribution of the test statistic, prove that the test has non-trivial power against many local alternatives, and show that it compares favourably to both the CUSUM and CUSUM of squares tests.
