β¦ Synopsis
Following the general approach for constructing test statistics for stochastic models based on optimal estimating functions by Thavaneswaran (1991), a new test statistic via martingale estimating function is proposed. Applications to some time-series models such as random coefficient autoregressive (RCA) models are discussed. It is shown that the choice of an optimal estimating function according to Godambe's (1985) criterion leads to optimal power against a fixed alternative. (~

## Abstract The power of Chow, linear, predictive failure and cusum of squares tests to detect structural change is compared in a twoβvariable random walk model and a onceβforβall parameter shift model. In each case the linear test has greatest power, followed by the Chow test. It is suggested that
