Detecting a change in the intercept in multiple regression

G. S. Watson

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1995, vol. 23, issue 1, 69-72

Abstract: To detect a change at some unknown time in the constant term of a multiple regression, an obvious statistic is the ratio c2 of the sum of squares of the partial sums of the residuals to their sum of squares. We show how the methods of Durbin and Watson (1950) can be used to find the true and an approximate significance points of c2, and computable bounds for the true points.
