摘要

單根檢定已成爲實證分析中用以檢定時間序列資料平穩性的基本檢定方法，以DF及ADF檢定法最常被研究所採用。單根檢定在應用時需考量落遲期數及檢定型態，以減少在判定上産生誤差的可能性。本研究以AIC落遲期選取準則及Enders單根檢定程序對台灣十種水果價格進行平穩性測定，實證結果顯示十種水果價格的最終檢定結果皆具平穩性，其中香蕉、鳳梨、西瓜、木瓜、蓮霧、香瓜、洋香瓜、及梨子價格的最適檢定方程式型態含截距及趨勢項，落遲期數分別爲1期至5期葡萄價格的最適檢定型態爲含截距項、但不含趨勢項的方程式型態，落遲期數爲4期；楊桃價格的最適檢定型態不含截距及趨勢項，落遲期數爲6期。

Stationarity is a certain condition to be maintained in time-series analyses. In applying the Dickey-Fuller or the Augmented Dickey-Fuller tests, appropriate functional form and optimal lag lengths need to be determined. This study utilizes a procedure suggested by Enders to test stationarity of fruit prices in Taiwan. For each functional form, Akaike Information Criterion is used to choose the proper lag length. Results indicate that for carambola prices, appropriate functional form for the stationarity test is the one without intercept or trend, and the lag length of six is appropriate. For grape prices, appropriate functional form is the one with intercept but without trend, and four legs seem to be optimal. For banana, pineapple, watermelon, papaya, wax apple, muskmelon, cantaloupe, and pear prices, appropriate functional forms are with intercepts and the trend variables. Optimal lag lengths for these fruit prices are between one and five. The results of stationarity tests reveal that the prices of these fruits are stationary.
