============================================================ Dependent Variable: RLGFOOD Method: Least Squares Sample(adjusted): Included observations: 44 after adjusting endpoints Variable Coefficient Std.

RLGFOOD(-1) R-squared Mean dependent var 3.28E-05 Adjusted R-squared S.D. dependent var S.E. of regression Akaike info criter Sum squared resid Schwarz criterion Log likelihood Durbin-Watson stat RLGFOOD in the regression above is the residual from the LGFOOD regression. A simple regression of RLGFOOD on RLGFOOD(–1) yields a coefficient of 0.79 with standard error 0.11. 3

RLGFOOD(-1) R-squared Mean dependent var 3.28E-05 Adjusted R-squared S.D. dependent var S.E. of regression Akaike info criter Sum squared resid Schwarz criterion Log likelihood Durbin-Watson stat Technical note for EViews users: EViews places the residuals from the most recent regression in a pseudo-variable called resid. resid cannot be used directly. So the residuals were saved as RLGFOOD using the genr command: genr RLGFOOD = resid 4

Adding an intercept, LGDPI and LGPRFOOD to the specification, the coefficient of the lagged residuals becomes 0.81 with standard error R2 is , so nR2 is 5

There are 45 observations in the regression in Table 12.1, and one fewer in the residuals regression.) The critical value of chi-squared with one degree of freedom at the 0.1 percent level is 6

EViews allows itself to use resid directly. 7

At the moment we are concerned only with first-order autocorrelation. This is why the command is auto(1). 8

Hence the test results are very slightly different. 10

The test is presented as an F statistic. Of course, when there is only one lagged residual, the F statistic is the square of the t statistic. 12

C LGDPI LGPRFOOD R-squared Mean dependent var Adjusted R-squared S.D. dependent var S.E. of regression Akaike info criter Sum squared resid Schwarz criterion Log likelihood Hannan-Quinn crite F-statistic Durbin-Watson stat Prob(F-statistic) dL = 1.24 (1% level, 2 explanatory variables, 45 observations) The Durbin–Watson statistic is dL is 1.24 for a 1 percent significance test (2 explanatory variables, 45 observations). 13

TESTS FOR AUTOCORRELATION III: EXAMPLES
Breusch–Godfrey test Test statistic: nR2, distributed as c2(q) Alternatively, F test on the lagged residuals H0: r1 = ... = rq = 0, H1: not H0 The Breusch–Godfrey test for higher-order autocorrelation is a straightforward extension of the first-order test. If we are testing for order q, we add q lagged residuals to the right side of the residuals regression. We will perform the test for second-order autocorrelation. 14

The Breusch–Godfrey test statistic is With two lagged residuals, the statistic has a chi-squared distribution with two degrees of freedom under the null hypothesis. It is significant at the 0.1 percent level 15

We know the result, because one of the t statistics is very high. 16

Note that the sample period has been adjusted to 1961 to 2003, to make RSS comparable with that for the previous regression. 17

The conclusions for the two tests are the same. 19

Again, there is strong evidence that the specification is subject to autocorrelation. 20

(Note that here n = 43.) The t statistic for the coefficient of the lagged residual is also highly significant. 23
