โฆ Synopsis
Time-series aggregates are often used in performing tests for departure from linearity. In this paper, we study the e ects of temporal aggregation on testing for linearity, basing our analysis on both time-and frequency-domain tests. The results show that temporal aggregation weakens nonlinearity and reduces the power of the tests. The impact is severe. The use of aggregate data greatly hampers the detection of the nonlinear nature of the process.

We propose tests for Gaussianity of a vector stationary time series based on multivariate measures of skewness and kurtosis. The tests are illustrated by two real sets of data.
