*! Five self-contained examples that demonstrate xtcsnardl.  Run sequentially:
*!
*!   Example A: Synthetic DGP with one common factor + asymmetric regressor
*!              -- verifies that PMG recovers true beta+, beta-, phi
*!   Example B: EURO-4 carbon-emissions specification (Mehta-Derbeneva 2024)
*!   Example C: BRICS renewable energy specification  (Wang et al. 2022)
*!   Example D: MG + Hausman test of long-run pooling
*!   Example E: NOCSA toggle to expose residual cross-section dependence
*!
*! Requires: xtpmg (>=2.0.1), pnardl (>=1.1.0), xtcsnardl (>=1.0.0)
*!           xtcd2  (for CSD diagnostics) -- optional

* (i) One common factor f_t  (AR(1))

gen double eps = 0.6 * rnormal()

* (iii) Asymmetric regressor x with factor-loading lam_x
gen double lam_x = runiform(0.30, 0.80)
gen double x     = lam_x * f + v

* (iv) Symmetric control c
gen double lam_c = runiform(0.20, 0.60)

* (v) True parameters
local beta_pos  =  0.80

* (vi) Generate y via the asymmetric DGP

*             + lam_y * f_t + eps
* For simplicity we use x in place of partial sums in the DGP; the test of
* recovery is on beta+, beta- estimated from the partial-sum decomposition.
gen double lam_y = runiform(0.25, 0.65)

gen double y = 0
* Burn-in: zero initial condition
by id: replace y = 0 if _n == 1

* Generate y dynamically: 5-period burn-in to stabilise
forvalues s = 2/70 {
    qui replace y = L.y + phi * (L.y - `beta_pos' * x - `beta_neg' * x ///

* EXAMPLE B.  EURO-4 CARBON EMISSIONS  (Mehta & Derbeneva 2024)
* =============================================================================
*  This example assumes you have loaded the EURO-4 panel.  Variable names:
*     omega  - per-capita CO2 emissions
*     rho    - carbon tax revenue / GDP        (asymmetric)
*     gamma  - environmental spending / GDP    (asymmetric)
*     pi     - industrial value-added / GDP
*     psi    - GDP per capita
*     theta  - urbanisation rate
*
*  Replace the placeholder load below with your data path.

* Expected interpretation:
*   - Long-run asymmetry on rho (carbon tax): tax HIKE reduces emissions more
*     strongly than tax CUT raises them.
*   - Long-run asymmetry on gamma (env. spending): spending INCREASE reduces
*     emissions; spending CUT raises them.
*   - ECT phi ~ -0.47, half-life ~ 1.5 years.
*   - CD test on residuals does NOT reject => CSA augmentation sufficient.
