Lag*one autocorrelation in short series: estimation and hypotheses ... |
|
Overview
Tests associated with the different estimators. These estimates evidence the. Small probability of detecting autocorrelation in series with less than 20. The present study focuses on autocorrelation estimators reviewing. Most of them and proposing a new one. Hypothesis testing is also explored. And discussed as the statistical significance of the estimates may be of. Interest. These topics are relevant for methodological and behavioural. Sciences, since they have impact on the techniques used for assessing. This research was supported by the Comissionat per a Universitats i Recerca del.
