What is Stationarity

Encyclopedia of Organizational Knowledge, Administration, and Technology
The statistical properties like mean, variance, autocorrelation, etc. of such a time series are all constant over a period of time. Statistical forecasting methods generally use this stationarity property through mathematical transformations in the process of predicting how the future varies in comparison to the past. It, thus, aims to identify whether there is unit root in the time series process or not.

The Dynamics of Demographic and Macroeconomic Variables in India
Sovik Mukherjee (St. Xavier's University, India)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-7998-3473-1.ch013
Abstract
The theory of economic growth is one of the principal branches of macroeconomics that tries to highlight the factors that have influenced the long-run trend of the growth of an economy. One of the leading issues in the literature on India's economic growth has been the manifold effects of inflation and employment among many others. The present paper aims to examine the relationship between economic growth rates, inflation, employment, and population growth in a Simultaneous Equations System (SES) framework, with an exclusive focus on the experience since economic liberalization in 1991. The literature on this subject has up till now analyzed the determinants of these endogenous variables disconnectedly. Not only does this paper endeavour to ascertain the existence of endogeneity among these variables but also highlight a multitude of factors that are connected in this regard. This paper comes to a close by discussing the possibilities for developing strategies that are overtly concerned with productive employment generation.

An important property in time-series econometrics. A time-series is stationary if it has a constant mean, a finite variance, and a constant auto-covariance structure throughout the sample. If any one of these conditions is not satisfied, the time-series would be non-stationary.

Stationarity is a fundamental concept; it is a stochastic process when the time series fluctuations over time do not change. Statistically, the properties of the data do not change. In other words, it is a time series where the mean, variance, and autocorrelation structure (the relationship between the values of the series at different time points) remain constant over time.
