Multivariate ARDL Unit Root Test

v1.0.2 · Mar 16, 2026 · GPL-3

Description

Implements the multivariate autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) unit root test proposed by Sam, McNown, Goh, and Goh (2024) <doi:10.1080/03796205.2024.2439101>. The test augments the standard ADF regression with lagged levels of a covariate to improve power when cointegration exists. Bootstrap critical values ensure correct size regardless of nuisance parameters. Provides automatic lag selection via AIC/BIC, diagnostic tests, and comprehensive inference tables following the four-case framework.
