1 1 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable Methodologically, in developing a regression specification that survives the tests to which it is subjected, we have followed what is described as a specific-to-general procedure for model selection, and it is open to serious criticism. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

2 2 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable If you start with a poorly specified model, in our case the static model, the various diagnostic test statistics are likely to be invalidated. Thus there is a risk that the model may survive the tests and appear to be satisfactory, even though it is misspecified. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

3 3 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable To avoid this danger, you should in principle adopt a general-to-specific approach. You should start with a model that is sufficiently general to avoid potential problems of underspecification, and then see if you can legitimately simplify it. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

4 4 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable In our case, the starting point should be the model with all the lagged variables. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

5 5 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable Having fitted it, we might be able to simplify it to the static model, if the lagged variables individually and as a group do not have significant explanatory power. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

6 6 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable If the lagged variables do have significant explanatory power, we could perform a common factor test and see if we could simplify the model to an AR(1) specification. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

7 7 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable Sometimes we may find that a model with a lagged dependent variable is an adequate dynamic specification, if the other lagged variables lack significant explanatory power. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

8 8 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable In the case of the housing regression, we have done exactly the opposite. We started with a crude static model. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

9 9 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable We switched to an AR(1) specification. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

10 10 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable We turned to the more general model when the common factor test revealed that the AR(1) specification was inadequate. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION

11 11 General model with lagged variables Static model AR(1) model Model with lagged dependent variable Finally we ended up with a model with a lagged dependent variable, perhaps a little lucky to do so. DYNAMIC MODEL SPECIFICATION
