Fourier Hausman Test
The Fourier Hausman test extends the classical Hausman endogeneity test by augmenting the regression with Fourier trigonometric terms — sines and cosines of time — so that the test remains valid even when the data-generating process contains smooth structural breaks or gradual nonlinearities that conventional linear specifications miss.
