Overview

About

Maintained by Muhammad AlkhalafFirst published 2026-03-161 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

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.
