Specifically, the DGBAS forecasting error sequence has significant autocorrelation of order one and is correlated with the macroeconomic diffusion indexes. This motivates us to propose a set of models for updating the DGBAS forecast. Among these models, the simplest one needs only the current DGBAS forecast and the previous DGBAS forecasting error, and the best model extends this simple model by including certain properly selected diffusion indexes as explanatory variables. The updated models considerably outperform the DGBAS forecast and the pure diffusion index models (that do not account for the DGBAS forecast) in both the in-sample and out-of-sample comparisons.24648565 bytesapplication/pdf經濟成長率(economic growth rate), 條件動差檢定(conditional moment test), 擴散指標(diffusion index), 預測誤差(forecasting error), 預測更新(forecast updating model)[SDGs]SDG8journal articlehttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/282109/1/3901_201103_1.pdf
