摘要
This study develops two types of robust test statistics applicable to Markov-switching autoregressive models. The test statistics can be constructed by sum functionals of the "smoothed" probabilities that a given observation came from a particular regime and do not require the estimation of additional parameters. Monte Carlo experiments show that the tests have good finite-sample size and power properties. The tests are applied to investigate the fluctuations in real GNP growth in the U.S.
