In many regression applications both the independent and dependent variables are measured with error. When this happens, conventional parametric and nonparametric regression techniques are no longer valid. We consider two different nonparametric techniques, regression splines and kernel...

In this paper we consider the polynomial regression model in the presence of multiplicative measurement error in the predictor. Consistent parameter estimates and their associated standard errors are derived. Two general methods are considered, with the methods differing in their assumptions...

The bootstrap is shown to be inconsistent in spurious regression. The failure of the bootstrap is spectacular in that the bootstrap effectively turns a spurious regression into a cointegrating regression. In particular, the serial correlation coefficient of the residuals in the bootstrap...

This paper provides evidence on problems associated with using standard tests for predictive failure when the errors of a linear regression model are not normally distributed. The ability of a simple bootstrap procedure to give a useful degree of control over the significance levels is examined.

A functional law for an I(1) sample data version of the continuous-path block bootstrap of Paparoditis and Politis (2001) is given. The results provide an alternative demonstration that continuous-path block bootstrap unit root tests are consistent under the null.

In this paper we analyze the limiting properties of the estimated parameters in a general class of asymmetric volatility models which are closely related to the traditional exponential GARCH model. The new representation has three main advantages over the traditional EGARCH: (1) It allows a much...
