In statistics , a portmanteau test tests whether any of a group of autocorrelation s of a time series are different from zero. Among portmanteau tests are both the Ljung&ndash Box test and the now obsolete Box&ndash Pierce test . The portmanteau test is useful in working with ARIMA models. The Portmanteau tests are used to test the stationarity of time series. The Ljung&ndash Box test statistic is calculated as math Q T T 2 sum k 1 s r k 2 T k . math T number of observations s number of coefficients to test autocorrelation r sub k sub autocorrelation coefficient for lag k Q portmanteau test statistic. If the sample value of Q exceeds the critical value of a chi square distribution with s degrees of freedom, then at least one value of r is statistically different from zero at the specified significance level. The Null Hypothesis is that none of the autocorrelation coefficients up to lag s are different from zero. The Ljung&ndash Box 1978 test is an improvement over the Box&ndash Pierce 1970 test, whose statistic was math Q T sum s k 1 r 2 k. math The problem with the Box&ndash Pierce statistic was bad performance in small samples. The Ljung&ndash Box test is better for all sample sizes including small ones. References reflist Ljung, G. M. and Box, G. E. P., On a measure of lack of fit in time series models.
