β¦ Synopsis
The paper addresses the issue of measuring the persistence of shocks on seasonally integrated processes observed at quarterly intervals. We show that the amplitude of the limiting cycle described by the cumulated impulse response function provides a parametric measure of persistence and that Cochrane's normalized variance ratio can correspondingly be extended as a non-parametric counterpart. For illustrative purposes the latter is applied to the Italian GDP and to the output of the agricultural sector.

A core stylized fact of the empirical exchange rate literature is that half-life deviations of equilibrium real exchange rates from levels implied by Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) are very persistent. Empirical efforts to explain this persistence typically proceed along two distinct paths, resorting
Recent data from several longitudinal studies including one spanning 22 years suggest that aggression is quite stable over time and situation. Early measures of intellectual competence predicted concurrent and later aggression, but early aggression was independently a good predictor of reduced intel
## Abstract The operational analog prediction system used as input to official USA seasonal temperature category forecasts was modified to produce anomaly forecasts instead of most probable class forecasts. These modified forecasts led to more conservative predictions, but were more reliable for ab
