Searching for a Break in GNP

Open access
Christiano, Lawrence J.·1992·Journal of Business & Economic Statistics

Abstract

It has been suggested that existing estimates of the long-run impact of a surprise move in income may have a substantial upward bias due to the presence of a trend break in post war U.S. GNP data.This paper shows that the statistical evidence does not warrant abandoning the no trend null hypothesis.A key part of the argument is that conventionally computed significance levels overstate the likelihood of the trend break alternative hypothesis.This is because they do not take into account that, in practice, the break date is chosen based on pre-test examination of the data.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
