Testing for Non-Linear Dependence in Univariate Time Series: An Empirical Investigation of the Austrian Unemployment Rate

In recent years interest has been growing in testing for stochastic non-linearity in macroeconomic time series. There are several inference procedures available. But not much is known about their behaviour on real world small-sized settings. This paper surveys some of these tests. Their performan...
