The RATS Software Forum

Dear all:

I like to try the CIPS test of Pesaran (2006) in my study. If anyone has the code in Rats, please let me know. I greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.

Hi Tom,

I was just wondering if there is a command in RATS to compute CIPS test for unit root in the presence of Cross-Section dependence (Pesaran,2007).

Thank you!

This does the CIPS test. As the comments say, it's a crude implementation of it, as it hasn't been converted into a procedure, but it does the required calculations.
