Nonlinear ARDL (NARDL) Bounds Test

The Nonlinear ARDL bounds test, developed by Shin, Yu, and Greenwood-Nimmo (2014), extends the linear ARDL framework to detect asymmetric long-run relationships in time series. By decomposing a regressor into positive and negative partial sums, NARDL simultaneously tests for cointegration and estimates separate long-run effects for increases and decreases — without requiring all variables to be integrated of the same order.
