Testing linear and loglinear error components regressions against Box-Cox alternatives

Abstract

This paper derives Lagrange multiplier tests based on double-length artificial regressions for testing linear and loglinear error component regressions against Box-Cox alternatives. These tests are easy to implement and should prove useful in panel data regressions.
