Augmented Dickey-Fuller test

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In statistics, an augmented Dickey-Fuller test is a test for a unit root in a time series sample. It is a version of the Dickey-Fuller test for a larger and more complicated set of time series models . The augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) statistic, used in the test, is a negative number. The more negative it is, the stronger the rejection of the hypothesis that there is a unit root at some level of confidence.
