The deterministic model used for detrending. |

To improve the power of the unit root test, Elliot, Rothenberg and Stock
proposed a local to unity detrending of the time series. ERS developed
a feasible point optimal test, "P-test"
, which takes serial
correlation of the error term into account. The second test type is
the "DF-GLS"
test, which is an ADF-type test applied to the
detrended data without intercept. Critical values for this test are
taken from MacKinnon in case of model="constant"
and else from
Table 1 of Elliot, Rothenberg and Stock.
