see Table 1 for variables' names

d = differences; 1, 2, 3,... = differences lagged 1, 2, 3,...

* figures reported are the ADF coefficients and t values for the level of the residual of the static regression between the two variables reported on the left. This corresponds to the Engle and Granger (1987) test for cointegration
