Wooldridge Serial Correlation Test for Panel Data using Stata.

In this article, we will follow Drukker (2003) procedure to derive the first-order serial correlation test proposed by Jeff Wooldridge (2002) for panel data. It has to be mentioned that this test is considered a robust test, since works with lesser assumptions on the behavior of the heterogeneous individual effects. We start with the linear […]

Box-Pierce Test of autocorrelation in Panel Data using Stata.

6 Comments / Econometrics / John M. Riveros

The test of Box & Pierce was derived from the article “Distribution of Residual Autocorrelations in Autoregressive-Integrated Moving Average Time Series Models” in the Journal of the American Statistical Association (Box & Pierce, 1970). The approach is used to test first-order serial correlation, the general form of the test is given the statistic as: Where
