Approximations to Some Finite Sample Distributions Associated with a First-Order Stochastic Difference Equation

Phillips, P. C. B.·1977·Econometrica

Abstract

Edgeworth series expansions are obtained of the finite sample distributions of the least squares estimator and the associated t ratio test statistic in the context of a first-order noncircular stochastic difference equation. General formulae are given for these expansions up to 0(Th1) where T is the sample size and explicit representations of these in terms of the true parameters are derived up to 0(12). Some numerical comparisons of the approximations and the exact distributions are made in the case of the least squares estimator.

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.
