Spanish term or phrase: tablas de superficies de respuesta de McKinnon
Anyone familiar with the Dickey-Fuller test? (This is a question for people trained in statistics.)

El valor del estadístico de Dickey y Fuller para los residuos correspondientes a la función de demanda de cigarrillos legales es -9,116 (que se compara con el valor crítico de las **tablas de superficies de respuesta de Mc Kinnon**) que es -5,24 a 1% de significación.

McKinnon response surface tables
Explanation:
(1) Test for a unit root in the level, and in the …rst di¤erence, of each ofthe three series using the augmented Dickey-Fuller test, including a trend andintercept, or including only an intercept as you think necessary. Determinethe lag length required for each test for each series by one of the two methodsdescribed in the lectures (minimised information criterion or t-test on longestlag). You may start with 4 lags. Note, EVIEWS 4 now has an option toautomatically select lag length using the SIC criterion. It also uses McKinnon’sresponse surface estimates of tail probabilities.
