Multiple Testing Techniques in Growth Econometrics (2009)
Deckers, Thomas, Hanck, Christoph
This paper discusses two longstanding questions in growth econometrics which involve multiple hypothesis testing. In cross sectional GDP growth regressions many variables are simultaneously tested...
Nonstationary-volatility robust panel unit root tests and the great moderation (2009)
This paper proposes a new testing approach for panel unit roots that is, unlike previously suggested tests, robust to nonstationarity in the volatility process of the innovations of the time series...
Combining non-cointegration tests (2009)
Bayer, Christian, Hanck, Christoph
The local asymptotic power of many popular non-cointegration tests has recently been shown to depend on a certain nuisance parameter. Depending on the value of that parameter, different tests perform...
Nonstationary-Volatility Robust Panel Unit Root Tests and the Great Moderation (2008)
This paper proposes a new testing approach for panel unit roots that is, unlike previously suggested tests, robust to nonstationarity in the volatility process of the innovations of the time series...
Is double trouble? How to combine cointegration tests (2008)
Bayer, Christian, Hanck, Christoph
This paper suggests a combination procedure to exploit the imperfect correlation of cointegration tests to develop a more powerful meta test. To exemplify, we combine Engle and Granger (1987) and...
An intersection test for panel unit roots (2008)
This paper proposes a new panel unit root test based on Simes’ [Biometrika 1986, “An Improved Bonferroni Procedure for Multiple Tests of Significance”] classical intersection test. The test is...
More on the F-test under nonspherical disturbances (2008)
Krämer, Walter, Hanck, Christoph
We show that the F-test can be both liberal and conservative in the context of a particular type of nonspherical behaviour induced by spatial autocorrelation, and that the conservative variant is...
Now, whose schools are really better (or weaker) than Germany's? A multiple testing approach (2008)
Using PIRLS (Progress in International Reading Literacy Study) data, we investigate which countries' schools can be be classified as significantly better or weaker than Germany's as regards the...

A meta analytic approach to testing for panel cointegration (2007)
We propose new tests for panel cointegration by extending the panel unit root tests of Choi [2001] and Maddala and Wu [1999] to the panel cointegration case. The tests are flexible, intuitively...
A Meta Analytic Approach to Testing for Panel (2007)
We propose new tests for panel cointegration by extending the panel unit root tests of Choi [2001] and Maddala and Wu [1999] to the panel cointegration case. The tests are flexible, intuitively...
Are PPP tests erratically behaved? Some panel evidence (2006)
Caporale, Guglielmo Maria, Hanck, Christoph
This paper examines whether, in addition to standard unit root and cointegration tests, panel approaches also produce test statistics behaving erratically when applied to tests for PPP. We show that...
Cross-sectional correlation robust tests for panel cointegration (2006)
We use meta analytic combination procedures to develop new tests for panel cointegration. The main idea consists in combining p-values from time series cointegration tests on the different units of...
Mixed signals among panel cointegration tests (2006)
Time series cointegration tests, even in the presence of large sample sizes, often yield conflicting conclusions (“mixed signals”) as measured by, inter alia, a low correlation of empirical...
The error-in-rejection probability of meta-analytic panel tests (2006)
Meta-analytic panel unit root tests such as Fisher’s Chi^2 test, which consist of pooling the p-values of time series unit root tests, are widely applied in practice. Recently, several Monte Carlo...
For which countries did PPP hold? A multiple testing approach (2006)
We use recent advances in multiple testing to identify the countries for which Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) held over the last century. The approach controls the multiplicity problem inherent in...
OLS-based estimation of the disturbance variance under spatial autocorrelation (2006)
Krämer, Walter, Hanck, Christoph
We investigate the OLS-based estimator s^2 of the disturbance variance in the standard linear regression model with cross section data when the disturbances are homoskedastic, but spatially...

Cointegration Tests of PPP: Do they also Exhibit Erratic Behaviour?
Guglielmo Maria Caporale, Christoph Hanck
We analyse whether tests of PPP exhibit erratic behaviour (as previously reported by Caporale et al., 2003) even when (possibly unwarranted) homogeneity and proportionality restrictions are not...

Prof. Dr. Walter Krämer, Christoph Hanck
We investigate the OLS-based estimator s2 of the disturbance variance in the standard linear regression model with cross section data when the disturbances are homoskedastic, but spatially...

The Error-in-Rejection Probability of meta-analytic panel tests
The puzzling Monte Carlo finding that the size distortion of meta-analytic panel unit root tests increases with the number of panel series is explained as the cumulative effect of arbitrarily small...

Christian Bayer, Christoph Hanck
bayerhanck produces a joint test-statistic for the null of no-cointegration based on Engle-Granger, Johansen maximum eigenvalue, Boswijk, and Banerjee tests.
