✦ Synopsis

The classification between stochastic trend stationarity and deterministic broken trend stationarity is important because incorrect inferences can follow if a stationary series with a broken trend is incorrectly classified as integrated. In this paper, we consider joint tests for regular and seasonal unit roots null hypothesis against broken trend stationarity alternatives where the location of the break is known or unknown. Based on the F-test proposed by Hasza and Fuller (1982, Ann. Statist. 10, 1209-1216), we develop testing procedures for distinguishing these two types of process. The asymptotic distributions of test statistics are derived as functions of Wiener processes. A response surface regression analysis directed to relating the finite sample distributions and the breaking position is studied. Simulation experiments suggest that the power of the test is reasonable. The testing procedure is illustrated by the Canadian consumer price index series.

In contrast to other models for ordinal data, the continuation ratio model can be fitted with standard statistical software. This makes it particularly appropriate for large clinical trials with ordinal response variables. In addition, when the trials are longitudinal, this model can be applied to i
