Autocorrelation
• Lebanon Example
Time
Order of auto-correlation
Consequences of autocorrelation
• Correlogram Q stat
• Serial correlation LM test
• DW statistics (based on estimated
residuals) ***
Durbin-Watson statistic is not appropriate as a test
for serial correlation in this case, since there is a
lagged dependent variable on the right-hand side of
the equation.
Corrections for Serial Correlation
• Let, Yt = b1+b2X2t+b3X3t+ …+bkXkt+et …….(1)
êt ρ ê t-1 + vt
DW is low Autocorrelation
t, F, R2 are unreliable
Ho: No autocorrelation
Here, 0% chance
So, there is autocorrelation
Add ar(1) as regressor to rectify autocorrelation
