{title:Description}
{pstd}
{cmd:xtgrangert} performs the Half-Panel Jackknife (HPJ) Wald-type test for Granger non-causality, developed by Juodis, Karavias, and Sarafidis (2021).
This test offers superior size and power performance, which stems from the use of a pooled estimator with a sqrt(NT) rate of convergence.
The test has two other useful properties; it can be used in multivariate systems and it has power against both homogeneous as well as heterogeneous alternatives.
The test allows for cross-sectional dependence and cross-sectional heteroskedasticity.
The command also reports results for the HPJ estimator with overlapping half panels.
In the presence of cross-sectional dependence the variance of the HPJ estimator can be obtained by bootstrapping.
The bootstrap resamples across the cross-sectional dimension.
{break}
{cmd:xtgrangert} internally adds lags of the dependent variable with heterogeneous slope coefficients when calculating the HPJ test statistic and estimating the HPJ estimator.
The lags are partialled out and their estimation results are not presented in the output.
{smcl}
{marker options}{...}
{title:Options}
{dlgtab:Main}
{phang}
{opt lags():} specifies the number of lags of dependent and independent variables to be added to the regression. If {cmd:lags()} is not specified, the default is {cmd:lags(1)}.
The lags of the dependent variable are partialled out.{p_end}
{phang}
{opt maxlags:()} specifies the upper bound of lags. The BIC criterion is used to select the number of lags that provides the best model fit. {cmd:lags()} and {cmd:maxlags()} cannot be used at the same time.{p_end}
{phang}
{opt lagoverlap} allows lags to overlap between the half panels.{p_end}
{dlgtab:SE/Robust}
{phang}
{opt het} allows for cross-sectional heteroskedasticity.
{phang}
{opt nodfc} does not apply a degrees of freedom correction in the computation of the variance-covariance matrix of the HPJ estimator. This option is mostly useful under cross-sectional heteroskedasticity.
{dlgtab:Bootstrap}
{phang}
{opt boot:strap} employs a bootstrap variance estimator in the HPJ Wald statistic, statistic, which allows for cross-sectional dependence. 100 repetitions are used based on the current seed.
{phang}
{opt boot:strap}{cmd:(}{it:#reps}{cmd:, seed({help seed}))} employs a bootstrap variance estimator in the HPJ Wald statistic, which allows for cross-sectional dependence with a custom {help seed} and {it:#reps} repetitions.
{dlgtab:Reporting}
{phang}
{opt sum} presents results on the sum of the estimated feedback coefficients. This option can be useful when the number of lags is greater than 1.
