Hello Professor, Already subscribed and watched twice to understand the method in better way. Kindy refer few research papers to interprete the findings in correct way.
Thanks Kushwaha for your subscription, deeply appreciated!. These papers use CUSUMSQ test: (1) Adeleye et al (2017) - Financial Reforms and Credit Growth in Nigeria: Empirical Insights from ARDL and ECM Techniques (2) Zgambo and Chilese (2015) - Empirical Analysis of the Effectiveness of Monetary Policy in Zambia (3) Belloumi (2014) - The Relationship Between Trade, FDI and Economic Growth in Tunisia: An Application of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model (4) Shahbaz and Islam (2014) - Financial Development and Income Inequality in Pakistan: An Application of ARDL Approach ...I'll love if you help share my link too :)
Hi, how can we interpret the numbers for the model at min 5:25, all p values are high, so what will be our conclusion here for this short run form model ?? Help please, I have the same case.. my thesis is about money demand
Hello, thank you for posting such a useful videos about ARDL. I have the following questions about the procedures. 1-Why did you use the VAR analysis to get the proper lag of the regression in the first place? Eviews have the information criteria to determine a proper lag structure. 2-why did you identify only 1 lag and did not follow eviews recommendations? 3- Eviews 10 have long and short run regression estimations including the ECM, why manually take the difference? CUSUM test is already included in eviews 10 for ARDL, why estimating a simple regression analysis and then perform CUSUM test?? I hope to that you notice these questions :)
Hi Steve, this is the OLS approach (indicated in the Topic) to estimating an ARDL model. You can check my other ARDL videos where I used the ARDL algorithm to run the analysis. Hope these help, thanks.
@@CrunchEconometrix Dear professor, thank you for answering my question. I want to add, what if the acquired results are counter intuitive for the selected lag. For example. when examining the relation between GDP and Foreign direct Investment (FDI) I dont get consistency in the sign of the parameters across different lags (with statistical significance). What does this really mean? Does this mean that I have wrong model specification although that the lags are determined according to information criteria or what? does this mean that for each lag (or quarter) the relation between the variable can change dramatically and in contrast with the theory? there is no serial correlation and the model passed the CUSUM test and CUSUM square test. This may indicate for stability in the estimation.
Not exactly. Unless all the info criteria agree on the same lag length otherwise select other info criteria if there are different optimal lags and re-estimate the model. Then choose the results whose coeff-signs are close to your expected a priori.
Thank you Ma. when i try estimating my NARDL, it shows singular matrix. Please, what does this mean and how can i go about it? Secondly, do i need to log my variables before performing NARDL test?
First of all thank you very much for your helpful videos. I really appreciate it. But I've a little problem about this issue. I've run ARDL test both ARLD estimator (estimation - ARDL options) and OLS approach which used "d(y) c d(y(-1)) d(x(-1)) d(x(-2)) y(-1) x(-1)" formula. But there's a differences between two estimations and outputs didn't match. Do you have any idea why I get this such results?
Hi Merve, thanks for the positive feedback on my videos. Deeply appreciated! 💕 The reason is simple. The algorithms differ. Can't get the same results.

Hi Aaron, interpret your results in relation to the lags. Eg: "At the 2nd of X3, the coeff is positive and significant at the 5% level which means that..."
Hello again.Since i am doing an ARDL model, I followed your advice to use the ARDL bounds test to determine if there exists a long run relationship among my variables. My dependent variable is logrgdp and my regressors are logrgc, logrgk, and logrfr (where rgc=real government consumption, rgk=real public investment and rfr=real government revenues). The value of F-statistic is 10.45432, higher than I(0) and I(1). Hence, I can reject the null hypothesis of no cointegration. Further, based on the AIC criterion, 1 lag is the appropriate lag length to use. I then specified my ARDL model as logrgdp c logrgc logrgk logrfr logrgc(-1) logrgk(-1) logrfr(-1) logrgdp(-1) and estimated it thru OLS. But what is bugging me, how will I specify the ECM model? Based on your video, you only included the 1 lagged of independent variables in their first differences plus the 1 lagged ECM(residuals) while the dependent variable is in first difference. Should i do the same? Your help shall be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

You have run the diagnostic tests for 1. Short run model 2. Long run model 3. error correction model. My question is which diagnostic test result I should keep in my paper? The long run ones or the ones with the error correction model? For your kind information - I am trying to show a long run relationship between CO2 emission and economic growth.
Hi Madam, need your help please. Suppose the natural log of all the variables (dependent&independent) are taken, will the error correction term still be interpreted in the same way? I mean if the coefficient of the ect is -2.3, is a 2.3% adjustment or a 230% adjustment toward LR equilibrium? Some recent papers (2018 and 2019) where natural log of all variables were taken, are interpreting the ect as 2.3%. Can you please guide on which interpretation is correct? Thanks.
230% convergence is correct but nobody will take your results seriously. Change your control variables, use appropriate lags and re-estimate. Note: -0.023 = 2.3%
@@CrunchEconometrix Thanks Madam for your quick reply and great content. If the model with the ect -2.3 passes all diagnostic and stability tests, will it still be invalid or we just need to justify the over convergence? E.g. financial data are subject to overshooting hypothesis as a justification
@@CrunchEconometrix Since I just have 38 observations, may I know that AIC and SIC criterion, which should I follow? As SIC is allow for small sample size from 30-80.
Thank you. I have watched that and my understanding is that when you estimate the ARDL model in EVIEWS the first eqution that comes is the short run equation and long run equation is obtained when you view the Long run form and bounds test.

Hi ma'am. Thank you for your informative videos. my model is a bivariate one. can i use an alternative method to johansen such as bounds and then continue on with ardl and ecm?
CrunchEconometrix Thank you for your quick response. I would be greatful for your response to these further queries: 1.in determining optimal lag here you alternatively changed the exogenous and endogenous. Were these the optimal lag for each model? In here however ua-cam.com/video/jtb_4fqxBZE/v-deo.html all the variables were input as endogenous. It does not seem to go with the method for determining optimal lag of each series either wherein there was no exogenous there. 2. what is the difference between vecm and ecm? Do i understand correctly vecm is for multivariate? My data is bivariate. I would like to estimate ardl and ecm directly(not thru ols) but i only seem to find vecm models tutorial mostly. Could u direct me if possible to a tutorial on direct estimate of ecm. I am studying 3 bivariate eqns(the independent is common in 2 of them). 3. what if i have serial correlation?
Hi Ran, please know that if questions on different videos are lumped up, I simply skip them. But know that ECM applies to ARDL while VECM applies to VAR. Also, watch any of my videos on diagnostics to understand "serial correlation". Thanks.
Hi Naceur, you can't deal with multicollinearity without dropping variables. Watch these two videos: Multicollinearity and General-to-Specific. You'll be guided on what to do. Hope these tips are helpful.
It is such a hugh help for my research!!! I appreciate your videos so much!! So I am doing the ARDL on eviews today for a study with 6 variables and there contains I(0) and I(1) data with cointegration, so i went for Estimate ECM. Even though the max lag line is 8 but I think too many lags will cause the loss of degree of freedom so I chose the optimal lag as 2, i accordingly run all the process until the Error Correction Specification, how can I interpret the result if there are ECT(1) and ECT(2)?? I found my ECT(1)'s coefficient is negative and significant on Prob. value, but ECT(2)'s codfficient is negative but obviously not significant with an value of 0.4295. What should I interpret the outcome in this situation?? Thank you in advance!!!
Hello professor and thank you for all your efforts in the teaching of econometrics. Regarding the subject of the video, i have got a question the interpretation of the ECM coefficient. It is of my understanding that the coefficient in question is the rate of adjustment towards the long-run values, thus if you have a ECM coefficient of -0.2, 20% of the disequilibrium will be corrected in the next period. So what happens when you have ECM coefficients lower than -1 like in this case?
@@CrunchEconometrix Then the long run model would have more than one coefficient for the same variable. For short run I understand but in long run model how to interpret
Hello ma. Thank you so much for the videos. Your tutorials have been very helpful in my project. Here's my question: I'm using 2 models and after the bounds test, I discovered there is no cointegration in both. Is it possible that there are errors that make one's model not to cointegrate when it is supposed to. I just want to be sure, the cointegration didn't emanate from an error. Thank you.
@@CrunchEconometrix your analyses P-s in model are 0.8, 0.9 which are not significant in none of lvls, so the results of the model are not valid, or in case of ardl its the opposite?
Your videos are really helpful. Ma'am please tell me If optimal lag for dependent variable is 3 then we have to use 3 lags of ecm also while calculating ECM model.

@@CrunchEconometrix Hello Crunch. I have seen that They call Impact Multiplier to the b0 in the ARDL model (contemporaneus effect): I quote: "For example, the interm multiplier for two periods would be (β0+β1+β2). The total multiplier is the final effect on y on the sustained increase after q or more periods have elapsed and is given by the equation ∑qs= βs" So I think in the short term I can get the interim or impact
Thank you for all the great videos you have posted. I have a question regarding interpretation of long-run estimates. I understood that long-run model is --> lnimp c lnimp(-1) lnmva(-1) rexch(-1). Do the results from OLS of this model give us information about long-run relation? In your example, can we say that "the first lag of mva shows negative elasticity relationship on imp with a 0,257% decrease, ceteris paribus, in the long-run"? If I am wrong, where do we collect long-run estimates (coefficients/t-statistic)? Thank you in advance.
Hi Djordje, thanks for the encouraging feedback. Deeply appreciated! You gave the appropriate interpretation and the derivation of the long-run coefficients is as shown in the video.
I am a bit confused. From the specification of the ARDL, there should be the summation of the explanatory variables from when t=0, but yours start from t=1. Even if the chosen lag length is 1, it means one should start from 0 to 1 and not just pluck in 1. Kindly clarify, i will appreciate.
Yes, rightly observed. I chose to omit the level of the regressors and start with their lags. Like I told others previously, you can model yours starting with the level of the regressors.
When do you choose another model? Model 3 with constant from last video without trend I mean: Do I use model constant with trend for data like "New firms" + "Stock market capitalisation" + "real GDP"
hi maam, i have run ARDL test and my bound test show cointegration among my variables but when i applied ECM model my cointegration equation is not negative, please guide me ...thanks
Hi Jaweria, it implies that there's no reversion to long-run equilibrium. You can decide to interpret what you have or change your regressors and re-estimate the model.
Hi Chathuri, this the OLS approach to estimating an ARDL model which shows that each variable has 1 lag each obtained from the optimal selection process.
Good day Prof Ngozi. I watched your video on you tube that's on Error correction model. my challenges are. how do i interpret the lagged dependent variable supposing that the optmum lag length has been chosen to be (-1). and also if i find the ECT (term) being significant but greater than 1 and either positive or negative, how do i interpret it. is it appropriate to have such an explosive system of equations. thank you for your help. Wells from South Africa.
Hi Ngoni, thanks for watching my videos. (1) ARDL estimates just like VAR estimates are OLS estimates so just give the usual ceteris paribus argument. For instance, the past lag of per capita is associted with a 0.234 increase in gdp, on average ceteris paribus at the 1% significance level. (2) ECT can be between 0 and -2 (see Loayza and Ranciere, 2006). I cite this paper to support my result whenever I have a ECT value from -1. (3) No researcher likes an explosive model, so I always suggest that you change your variables with better proxies and re-estimate again. Hope these are helpful. Please don't forget to share my UA-cam Channel links with your social media and academic community, thanks! :)
@@CrunchEconometrix i got it "The third condition refers to the existence of a long-run relationship (dynamic stability) and requires that the coefficient on the error-correction term be negative and not lower than -2 (that is, within the unit circle)" (Loayza and Ranciere, 2006)
Thank you so much for this great explanation. What if the ECT is lower than -1 (e.g -1.25) but significant. Can I use that model? Or ECT must be in range of -1 to 0? Thank you.
Azizah, ECT should lie between 0 and -1. But there are papers with the coeff lower than -1. Check my COMMUNITY TAB for my FINANCIAL REFORMS ARDL paper. My ECT is -1.08 or thereabout.

Hi Ma'am. Your explanations are convincing. Thank you for such a great help. May I request you to throw some light on the interpretation of ARDL short run specification.
Hi Nihar, there's nothing really to the interpretation, since they are OLS estimates just give the ceteris paribus interpretation. E.g. "the first lag of mva shows a negative elasticity relationship on imp with a 0.257% decrease, on average, ceteris paribus in the short-run".

The result says there is no cointegration so I proceeded and estimated a short run ARDL model with one lag across all the variables.

Hello again. I tried to find the lag length criteria for my cointegrated model of 1 dependent variable and 1 exogenous variable, so in the VAR Specification box I put 1 variable in the "Endogenous variables" column and 1 variable in the "Exogenous variables" next to c. Apparently, all of the criteria suggest that I should use lag zero. So my question is, what does this mean for the long run model estimation going forward? Do I still need to estimate the correction model afterwards? I tried to use the direct "Error Correction Form" option on Coefficient Diagnostics after proving its cointegration with "Long Run Form and Bounds Test" and it appears that the coefficient for CointEq(-1) is -1.064716, which, if interpreted as the adjustment to long run equilibrium, is >100%.

Hi Madam, I am using a panel data for my research. Can I use PMG/ARDL method for estimating my model in EViews? If so how can I say if my model is good since there is no F statistics for this option in EViews?
Hi Vlado, to be honest, the EViews interface is a bit complicated for panel data analysis. I use Stata for that, most. Hence, I won't be able to answer your query to the best of my ability. May I know from where (location) you are reaching me?
When no cointegration is found and short run is estimated using ols, the R squared is very low and the variables are insignificant, then is there any use of the model?are the coefficients of any value?
Dear Professor. A quick question: When trying to find the appropriate lag length for the eventual ARDL model, would that equation be in levels of first differences? Also, Would the appropriate long-run regression equation be stated as an OLS, restricted constant and no fixed regressors for example, as: Retailrate c keyrate indep2 indep3 indep4 Secondly, could you kindly confirm if one would just run a simple OLS model of the above equation for the "long-run" pass-through and then save the residuals, etc and use them to form the ECM if there was a long-run relationship? Lastly, based on your lecture, the "short-run" version of the model will now have the ECT in there and will be ran in differences? Based on your illustration in your "How to Estimate ARDL and ECM..." video, you used some examples but some literature specify the models differently. Would one aslo need 5 terms with the summation signs plus 5 others with the subscript t-1 in the above example equation?Your kind response would be very useful for me to better understand your videos and practically apply the findings generally to ARDL models.
To the best of my ability, I have shown how to estimate ARDL models with clarity and examples. You may want to follow the guides shown and adapt to your research. Thanks.
Thanks Prof. I value your time highly and appreciate the time you take to respond. After watching all your videos , I was hoping that you could provide some more specifics just using the equation example I used above. The reason is because your videos though insightful, vary from other material but I believe you are credible as the others seem to leave out some of the difference operators, etc. Assuming there is indeed cointegration, could you kindly state the long run and short run equations? I will take it from there once I pass that hurdle, thanks.
I have a little trouble with series when i run stationarity test on them i found out they have unit root a level or log. Or i my the one missing something ma? You tutorial really help alot.
Dear madam, once again thank you very much for the highly informative video. In the end of the video you refer to the cusum and cusumsq tests to assess the stability of the model. However, if the model appears to breach the 5% boundary in either the cusum or the cusumsq test, what would you advise as a general approach? Many thanks
Hi Owen, thanks for the positive feedback. Deeply appreciated! If that is the case, perform a structural break analysis. Kindly watch my video on "Chow Test for Structural Break" for guide. Regards.
@@CrunchEconometrix Dear Madam, I may be so blunt to ask for your help again. Following your advice I have included an exogenous dummy variable within my ARDL model for the structural break. However, when conducting the cusum and cusumsq tests, I find that the test reveals only the timespan for the period after the structural break. Have you come across this issue and would you know how to overcome it? Many thanks!
@@CrunchEconometrix Thank you for the quick response. So just to affirm, if the line remains within the 5% bounds for the period after the exogenous structural break, I can automatically assume that the period before the structural break which is not shown within the cusum test results is also within the 5% bounds?
You are unnecessarily complicating issues. This video is very clear and straightforward on what to do when there's a break point. Kindly watch again, thanks.
thank you for sharing this i have questions, do we have to but -In the paper- ECM Regression as it appears or there is another way to compute final result? I mean if there's more than one lag for each, my Selected Model: ARDL(3, 3, 2, 4, 4, 2)
Thank you so much mum for your videos,they r so helpful.However, i have a simple question .my variables are I(0) and I(1) ,do i have to use d or (difference) all of them while running the model?
Thanks Dr Ngozi for your support, very useful videos indeed. I have noticed that in some of the estimation the R square value is 0.05 so does this impact the model validity
Hi Younes, if I'm using this data for thesis or manuscript, I'd improve on the Rsquared by adding regressors. Thanks for watching and sharing my videos. Deeply appreciated!
@@CrunchEconometrix another question please, how can I incorporate dummy variables in my ARDL ECM model, let's say I am assigning a value 1 for specific date and 0 otherwise so how to get this dummy variable, previously I was using @expand(dummy)
Madam, Your videos on econometrics are extremely useful for me in writing a research paper. I need some clarifications. Following your video I got the appropriate lag length as 4. In that case do I need to take as ECM(-4)? Secondly, in the final Error Correction Model which you have displayed for LNIMP, the p-values for independent variables are not significant at 5% level of significance. In that case how can one write the relationship between dependent and independent variables as findings? Otherwise I also got the satisfactory result for Serial Correlation and also for stability CUSUM diagnostic tests. I appreciate your guidance very much.
Hi Manoj, ECM is ALWAYS with one lag. If pvalue of an explvar is not significant, it implies that the relationship between depvar and explvar is not significant and you interpret your result as such. Good that your post-tests are ok.
Madam, If there is cointegration and I(1) then should we use the ECM model which you have shown in this video or do we need to use the VECM model which you have shown in other videos?
@@mkjoshi21 Manoj, u've completely mixed up the explanations. The result of the Bounds test tells you whether u'll perform an ECM or a VECM (if that's what you want). So, I'll suggest you watch the video again and take down notes while doing so. Thanks.

Hi Ganga, you can change your control variables and re-estimate.
The variables that I get significant with ARDL is not coming significant with this OLS approach. What could be the possible reason?
Apica, ARDL and OLS have different econometric algorithm which may affect their results.
Hello, thank you for posting such a useful videos about ARDL. I have the following questions about the procedures. 1-Why did you use the VAR analysis to get the proper lag of the regression in the first place? Eviews have the information criteria to determine a proper lag structure. 2-why did you identify only 1 lag and did not follow eviews recommendations? 3- Eviews 10 have long and short run regression estimations including the ECM, why manually take the difference? CUSUM test is already included in eviews 10 for ARDL, why estimating a simple regression analysis and then perform CUSUM test?? I hope to that you notice these questions :)
Hi Steve, this is the OLS approach (indicated in the Topic) to estimating an ARDL model. You can check my other ARDL videos where I used the ARDL algorithm to run the analysis. Hope these help, thanks.
@@CrunchEconometrix Dear professor, thank you for answering my question. I want to add, what if the acquired results are counter intuitive for the selected lag. For example. when examining the relation between GDP and Foreign direct Investment (FDI) I dont get consistency in the sign of the parameters across different lags (with statistical significance). What does this really mean? Does this mean that I have wrong model specification although that the lags are determined according to information criteria or what?
does this mean that for each lag (or quarter) the relation between the variable can change dramatically and in contrast with the theory? there is no serial correlation and the model passed the CUSUM test and CUSUM square test. This may indicate for stability in the estimation.
Not exactly. Unless all the info criteria agree on the same lag length otherwise select other info criteria if there are different optimal lags and re-estimate the model. Then choose the results whose coeff-signs are close to your expected a priori.
@@CrunchEconometrix thank you for answering!
U're welcome Steve, it's the least I can do. Thanks for watching and keep sharing too😀

After running bound test of cointegration, it is found that two variables are co integrated.

Hi Aaron, interpret your results in relation to the lags. Eg: "At the 2nd of X3, the coeff is positive and significant at the 5% level which means that..."
Hello again.Since i am doing an ARDL model, I followed your advice to use the ARDL bounds test to determine if there exists a long run relationship among my variables. My dependent variable is logrgdp and my regressors are logrgc, logrgk, and logrfr (where rgc=real government consumption, rgk=real public investment and rfr=real government revenues). The value of F-statistic is 10.45432, higher than I(0) and I(1). Hence, I can reject the null hypothesis of no cointegration. Further, based on the AIC criterion, 1 lag is the appropriate lag length to use. I then specified my ARDL model as logrgdp c logrgc logrgk logrfr logrgc(-1) logrgk(-1) logrfr(-1) logrgdp(-1) and estimated it thru OLS. But what is bugging me, how will I specify the ECM model? Based on your video, you only included the 1 lagged of independent variables in their first differences plus the 1 lagged ECM(residuals) while the dependent variable is in first difference. Should i do the same? Your help shall be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

Some recent papers (2018 and 2019) where natural log of all variables were taken, are interpreting the ect as 2.3%. Can you please guide on which interpretation is correct? Thanks.
230% convergence is correct but nobody will take your results seriously. Change your control variables, use appropriate lags and re-estimate. Note: -0.023 = 2.3%

If the model with the ect -2.3 passes all diagnostic and stability tests, will it still be invalid or we just need to justify the over convergence? E.g. financial data are subject to overshooting hypothesis as a justification
230% is grossly unrealistic. But you can send out the paper for more constructive feedback.

1.in determining optimal lag here you alternatively changed the exogenous and endogenous. Were these the optimal lag for each model? In here however ua-cam.com/video/jtb_4fqxBZE/v-deo.html all the variables were input as endogenous. It does not seem to go with the method for determining optimal lag of each series either wherein there was no exogenous there.

Hello professor and thank you for all your efforts in the teaching of econometrics.
Regarding the subject of the video, i have got a question the interpretation of the ECM coefficient. It is of my understanding that the coefficient in question is the rate of adjustment towards the long-run values, thus if you have a ECM coefficient of -0.2, 20% of the disequilibrium will be corrected in the next period. So what happens when you have ECM coefficients lower than -1 like in this case?
What is the exact value?

Impact multiplier? Where did that come from?
@@CrunchEconometrix Hello Crunch. I have seen that They call Impact Multiplier to the b0 in the ARDL model (contemporaneus effect): I quote: "For example, the interm multiplier for two periods would be (β0+β1+β2). The total multiplier is the final effect on y on the sustained increase after q or more periods have elapsed and is given by the equation ∑qs= βs" So I think in the short term I can get the interim or impact
Good.
Thank you for all the great videos you have posted.
I have a question regarding interpretation of long-run estimates. I understood that long-run model is --> lnimp c lnimp(-1) lnmva(-1) rexch(-1). Do the results from OLS of this model give us information about long-run relation? In your example, can we say that "the first lag of mva shows negative elasticity relationship on imp with a 0,257% decrease, ceteris paribus, in the long-run"? If I am wrong, where do we collect long-run estimates (coefficients/t-statistic)? Thank you in advance.
Hi Djordje, thanks for the encouraging feedback. Deeply appreciated! You gave the appropriate interpretation and the derivation of the long-run coefficients is as shown in the video.
I am a bit confused. From the specification of the ARDL, there should be the summation of the explanatory variables from when t=0, but yours start from t=1. Even if the chosen lag length is 1, it means one should start from 0 to 1 and not just pluck in 1. Kindly clarify, i will appreciate.
Yes, rightly observed. I chose to omit the level of the regressors and start with their lags. Like I told others previously, you can model yours starting with the level of the regressors.
When do you choose another model? Model 3 with constant from last video without trend I mean: Do I use model constant with trend for data like "New firms" + "Stock market capitalisation" + "real GDP"
You understand your data. I don't. Follow the guidelines for analysis.
hi maam, i have run ARDL test and my bound test show cointegration among my variables but when i applied ECM model my cointegration equation is not negative, please guide me ...thanks
Hi Jaweria, it implies that there's no reversion to long-run equilibrium. You can decide to interpret what you have or change your regressors and re-estimate the model.
Pls explain how did u get this d(lnmva) c d(lnmva(-1)) d(lnimp(-1)) d(rexh(-1)) as short run model

Good day Prof Ngozi. I watched your video on you tube that's on Error correction model. my challenges are. how do i interpret the lagged dependent variable supposing that the optmum lag length has been chosen to be (-1). and also if i find the ECT (term) being significant but greater than 1 and either positive or negative, how do i interpret it. is it appropriate to have such an explosive system of equations. thank you for your help. Wells from South Africa.
Hi Ngoni, thanks for watching my videos. (1) ARDL estimates just like VAR estimates are OLS estimates so just give the usual ceteris paribus argument. For instance, the past lag of per capita is associted with a 0.234 increase in gdp, on average ceteris paribus at the 1% significance level. (2) ECT can be between 0 and -2 (see Loayza and Ranciere, 2006). I cite this paper to support my result whenever I have a ECT value from -1. (3) No researcher likes an explosive model, so I always suggest that you change your variables with better proxies and re-estimate again. Hope these are helpful. Please don't forget to share my UA-cam Channel links with your social media and academic community, thanks! :)
@@CrunchEconometrix i got it "The third condition refers to the existence of
a long-run relationship (dynamic stability) and
requires that the coefficient on the error-correction term be negative and not lower than -2
(that is, within the unit circle)" (Loayza and Ranciere, 2006)
Thank you so much for this great explanation. What if the ECT is lower than -1 (e.g -1.25) but significant. Can I use that model?
Or ECT must be in range of -1 to 0?
Thank you.
Azizah, ECT should lie between 0 and -1. But there are papers with the coeff lower than -1. Check my COMMUNITY TAB for my FINANCIAL REFORMS ARDL paper. My ECT is -1.08 or thereabout.
@@CrunchEconometrix I will check it. Thank you so much for your response.
Hi, how do we get the theta (θ) the long run multiplier on eviews? I understand the a1 a2 a3 are short run multipliers and lamda (λ) is the speed of adjustment. but where is the log run parameter? can you please advice how to get it on eviews?
Hi Alia, this video explains the OLS approach to estimating the ARDL-ECM model and the long-run coefficients are explained at 9:50. You may need to watch this again. Also, I have other videos explaining the ARDL-ECM mechanism using the VAR algorithm. Hope this clears your question. Thanks.
YES!! Thank you very much. Can I ask you what would it mean if I got a positive sign with the error correction term coefficient? I got a negative in all my results but only one was a positive coefficient. Thank you very much fro your help!
Hi Alia, it implies there is no long-run converge to equilibrium in that model. It is explosive.
Hi Ma'am. Your explanations are convincing. Thank you for such a great help. May I request you to throw some light on the interpretation of ARDL short run specification.
Hi Nihar, there's nothing really to the interpretation, since they are OLS estimates just give the ceteris paribus interpretation. E.g. "the first lag of mva shows a negative elasticity relationship on imp with a 0.257% decrease, on average, ceteris paribus in the short-run".
Thank you Ma'am.
May I request you to make a video on ARDL model in R studio? Have a great day Ma'am.

Madam, Can I use the ols method in the ardl when the variables are not cointegrated? and some of my variables are I(0), is it appropriate to make the first-difference of them when doing the ardl? and what can i do if the coefficients are not significant(p-value>5%) in the short-run model? thank you!
Hi Elody, this clip tells you when ARDL is applicable and the steps to estimating too. I will advise you to watch all my ARDL models for better understanding. You can do several things if your coeffs are not significant: change the regressors, use optimal lags, use the right technique etc. May I know from where (location) you are reaching me?
I have doubt. For example when the optimal lag is three in the long run model I will use one lag or three lags?
Sam, optimal lags are chosen once. There are no separate optimal lags for short- and long-run model. I never stated that anywhere in my videos.
Hello Dr, thank you very much for this video, it is very helpful. My only issue is with the long run model specification after the bound test determines cointegration. Is there not supposed to be the summation sign when specifying it? Check the long run model in this particular video, at exactly 9mimutes and 9 secs. Please clarify this for me.
Hi Becca, thanks for the encouraging feedback. Deeply appreciated! The summation sign is used if there are MORE THAN ONE lag that series. So, as you can see the summation sign is not needed because only one lag is used for the regressors. Hope this clarifies.
If lnimp has 2 lags, ecm would be ecm(-1) ecm(-2)? Please kindly answer teacher because my dependent variable has two lags.
Don't confuse yourself. ECM always have 1 lag. Watch my videos again and practice along.
Thanks teacher.
Another question teacher. when I made stability check CUSUM and CUSUM Squares Test, only second one is within the lines. Can I accept the model?
What happens when the appropriate structure is no lag at all?
You can condition it and use 1 lag for the lagged dependent variable.
Hello, Dr.
Your posts have been tremendous help! I run an ARDL model with the following
1: with trend and constant
2: constant without trend
3: no constant and no trend .
But the best model chosen was 3: no constant and no trend, which does not surfer from serial correlation and hetero and also the model was stable with the CUSUM and the CUSUM SQUARE.Please how do i explain( interpret) a model without trend and constant? also the ECM was -0.03( annual data was used which was in log form), i hope it is a good ECM. Thank You.
Hi David, kindly check other online resources for the interpretation as I have never estimated any model without a constant.

Hi Akriti, "singular matrix" imply that there's multicollinearity among the regressors. (1) run a correlation analysis to observe the relative statistics and drop the highly collinear variable OR (2) run the VIF to see the highly collinear variable and drop it. Watch my video on MULTICOLLINEARITY....you will find it very helpful.

I just want to know how to interpretation coefficien of ECM -1.1? From another source, they said the coef should be max -1. Because its percentage.
Hi Yosita, it means correction of the previous periods errors will be at an adjustment speed of 110%. That is, given the scope and variables used there will be faster adjustment to long-run equilibrium. If you change your variables or scope, you may not get the same outcomes. Please may I know from where (location) you are reaching me?

Hi Sithu, since you have just 32 obs, you can't play with too many lags so I'll suggest that you indicate 2 as the maximum lag. Or run 2 regressions with each lag structure and see that which gives the best results.

Hello
I have 3 variables in my model and I did ARDL cointegration test and I found 2 cointegration equation in my model , what should I do next? I'm a little confused because I read somewhere that if we have more than 1 equation , we can't use ARDL cointegration but I think I'm wrong . Could you please explain what I should do in the next step?
Best regards
Amir, from what I know, it's impossible to have 2 cointegrating equations in an ARDL model because it's a single equation model.
Is it possible to use ECM and VECM at the same time?
Sawiki, ECM is for single equation models while VECM is for a system of equation. Depending on your research objectives, you can only engage one.
Thank you for all your efforts, Ma.

Can't we just estimate without the difference operator?

Yes, you should.
@@CrunchEconometrix Thanks for the prompt response. Permit me to bother you further, I'm carrying out a research on the impact of stock market development on the Nigerian economic growth. My independent variables are six in number while my sample size is 30 years. The variables are a combination of I(0) and I(1) so I tested for cointegration using the bounds testing technique. The result says there is no cointegration so I proceeded and estimated a short run ARDL model with one lag across all the variables. To my surprise, the regression result came out and none of the independent variables and their lags was significant. Also, the R^2 was too small. Could it be that the sample size is too small? Or could it be that the independent variables are too many? What could be the problem?
Pleases pardon me for bothering you too much.
You will need to do proper diagnostics of the explanatory variables:
1) are they correlated (watch my video on MULTICOLLINEARITY)
2) are they relevant (watch my video on ARDL Models: General-to-Specific). You will find these suggestions very helpful.

Hello sir, thank you for your video it help me alot. I have done ecm and bound test and i have some question sir.
In my bound test i find the data is cointegrated, however i didnt have negative and significant ect in ecm analysis, is that mean cointegrated result in bound test didnt always mean we have cointegration in the long run sir?, Is cointegrated result in bound test only mean we possibly have long relationship and ect result determine whether we have long run relationship or not?, If that so why some people always told the variable is cointegrated in the long run when the they find result in bound test or johansen test is good?
Hi Febiyan, the Bounds tests establishes if a long-run association exist among the variables. The ECM shows the speed at which reversion to long-run equilibrium is corrected from deviations.
Hi Dr! If I get the lag value of 4, does it mean i have to do like this d(lrm1(-1)) d(lrm1(-2)) d(lrm1(-3)) d(lrm1(-4)) for all the variables? Also, do the lag make the ECT still be lrm1 c lrm1(-1) lrgdp(-1) lreer(-1) or need to make it to lrm1 c lrm1(-1) lrm1(-2) lrm1(-3) lrm1(-4) lrgdp(-1) lrgdp(-2) ...... lreer(-3) lreer(-4) to get the ecm(-1)?
Hi Thian, adapt the guides given in the clip to suit your variables. Remember: ECT is ALWAYS with one lag regardless of the variables lag structure. Thanks.

Mam, why the ecm coefficient
Hi Renyi, the ECM coefficient must lie between 0 and -1. Kindly pick up any basic econometrics textbook for more details.
Hello again. I tried to find the lag length criteria for my cointegrated model of 1 dependent variable and 1 exogenous variable, so in the VAR Specification box I put 1 variable in the "Endogenous variables" column and 1 variable in the "Exogenous variables" next to c. Apparently, all of the criteria suggest that I should use lag zero. So my question is, what does this mean for the long run model estimation going forward? Do I still need to estimate the correction model afterwards?
I tried to use the direct "Error Correction Form" option on Coefficient Diagnostics after proving its cointegration with "Long Run Form and Bounds Test" and it appears that the coefficient for CointEq(-1) is -1.064716, which, if interpreted as the adjustment to long run equilibrium, is >100%.
yeah, that'll be the outcome. simply interpret accordingly.
Thank you so much mam for so prompt response 😊.

When no cointegration is found and short run is estimated using ols, the R squared is very low and the variables are insignificant, then is there any use of the model?are the coefficients of any value?
If that is the case, it is advisable to change the variables and use better proxies.Then re-estimate the model.
Dear Professor. A quick question: When trying to find the appropriate lag length for the eventual ARDL model, would that equation be in levels of first differences? Also, Would the appropriate long-run regression equation be stated as an OLS, restricted constant and no fixed regressors for example, as:
Retailrate c keyrate indep2 indep3 indep4
Secondly, could you kindly confirm if one would just run a simple OLS model of the above equation for the "long-run" pass-through and then save the residuals, etc and use them to form the ECM if there was a long-run relationship?
Lastly, based on your lecture, the "short-run" version of the model will now have the ECT in there and will be ran in differences? Based on your illustration in your "How to Estimate ARDL and ECM..." video, you used some examples but some literature specify the models differently. Would one aslo need 5 terms with the summation signs plus 5 others with the subscript t-1 in the above example equation?Your kind response would be very useful for me to better understand your videos and practically apply the findings generally to ARDL models.
