Empirica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Zusammenfassung

Das vonSchlicht (1981) vorgeschlagene Saisonbereinigungsverfahren kann als ein Verfahren aufgefaßt werden, welches Perturbationen (nichtstochastische Störungen) minimiert. Diese Sichtweise führt zu einer Kritik des dort vorgeschlagenen Saisonkriterismus. Es wird ein neues Saisonkriterium vorgeschlagen, welches diese Nachteile nicht aufweist, und es wird das resultierende Saisonbereinigungsverfahren angegeben.
