Structural break Zivot-Andrews test/Evidence
Method evidence record

Structural break Zivot-Andrews test

The Zivot-Andrews test is an endogenous structural break unit root test that determines the break point from the data rather than imposing it externally. It tests for a unit root against the alternative of stationarity around a single structural break — in the mean, the trend, or both — choosing the break date that provides the strongest evidence against the null.
