Beschreibung:
This paper is concerned with testing the hypothesis that a conditional median function is linear against a nonparametric alternative with unknown smoothness. We develop a test that is uniformly consistent against alternatives whose distance from the linear model converges to zero at the fastest possible rate. The test accommodates conditional heteroskedasticity of unknown form. The numerical performance and usefulness of the test are illustrated by the results of Monte Carlo experiments and an empirical example.
