Panel Data Unit Root testing: Overview
Abstract
This review discusses methods of testing for a panel unit root. Modern approaches to testing in cross-sectionally correlated panels are discussed, preceding the analysis with an analysis of independent panels. In addition, methods for testing in the case of non-linearity in the data (for example, in the case of structural breaks) are presented, as well as methods for testing in short panels, when the time dimension is small and finite. In conclusion, links to existing packages that allow implementing some of the described methods are provided.
