McLeod's test for periodic autocorrelation

Description

Performs McLeod's test for periodic autocorrelation.

Usage

periodic_acf1_test(acf, nepochs)

Arguments

acf

sample periodic autocorrelation function

nepochs

the number of epochs used to get the acf

Details

The test statistic is a scaled sum of squares of lag 1 sample periodic autocorrelation coefficients, see McLeod (1993), eq. (5). The distribution is approximately chi-square under the null hypothesis of no periodic autocorrelation.

Value

A list containing the following components:

statistic

the value of the test statistic.

pvalue

the p-value associated with the test statistic.
