Abstract

This paper considersthe applicationof the simulated Cox test procedure developed in Pesaran and Pesaran (1993) to test linear versus log-linear models. The test procedure can also be applied to other generalized linear regression models such as level-difference stationary models versus the log-difference stationary models. In order to compare the small sample performanceof the proposed test with other tests extant in the literature, the paper also reports the resultsof a numberof Monte Carlo experiments using the experimental framework of Godfrey et al. (1988). The Monte Carlo results provide strong support for a simplified version of the simulatedCox test over the PE and the BM tests, but suggest that there is little to choose between the simulated Cox test and the DL test.
* We are grateful to three anonymous referees of the journal and to Mike McAleer for helpful comments on an earlier version of the paper. The second author is grateful to the ESRC and the Isaac Newton Trust of Trinity College for partial financial support.
