Note(s): This table presents the panel unit root test results. The Fisher-type and Im-Pesaran-Shin methods were adopted for this analysis. The Fisher-type null hypothesis states that “all panels contain a unit root,” while the alternative hypothesis states that “at least one panel is stationary.” Thus, inverse normal static values were used for the Fisher-type model. The Im-Pesaran-Shin null hypothesis states that “all panels contain a unit root,” while the alternative hypothesis states that “some panels are stationary.” ∆ CPi,t, ∆ CCSi,t and ∆ GDPt were excluded from the unit root test since they are exogenous variables and do not differ by individuals. ***, ** and * indicate significance at the 1%, 5% and 10% levels, respectively
