Abstract: We construct properly scaled functions of Rp-valued partial sums of demeaned data and derive bounds via the functional law of the iterated logarithm for strong mixing processes. If we obtain a value below or equal to the bound we decide in favor of I(0); otherwise we decide in favor of I(1). This provides a consistent rule for classifying time series as being I(1) or I(0). The nice feature of the procedure lies in the almost sure nature of the bound, guaranteeing a lim sup type result. We finally provide conditions for the strong consistency of estimators of the variance in the dependent and heterogeneous case.
