It has been argued that these tests are not valid in the presence of unit roots and hence cointegration tests should be applied. The cointegration tests have often failed to reject the hypothesis of rationality. The present article argues that errors in variables affect tests of rationality. We use multiple sources of expectations to… CONTINUE READING
