  1. ***p < .01, **p < .05, *p < .1. The null hypothesis in the DG-GLS and KSS tests is non-stationarity, whereas the null hypothesis in the KPSS test is stationarity. The DF-GLS test (both PT and GLS statistics) rejects null hypotheses in the lower tail, while the KPSS and KSS tests reject null hypotheses in the upper tail. The 1%, 5%, and 10% critical values are: 3.96, 5.62, and 6.89, respectively, for PT of DF-GLS test; − 3.48, − 2.89, and − 2.57, respectively, for GLS of DF-GLS test; 0.216, 0.146, and 0.119, respectively, for KPSS test; and − 2.78, − 2.10, and − 1.79, respectively, for KSS test
