We discuss tests of significance in two general set tings. First\, when there are no additional covariates\, we develop a hypo thesis testing methodology for formally assessing that the mean function d oes not vary over time. Second\, in the presence of other covariates\, we propose a testing procedure to determine the significance of the covariate 's time-varying effect formally. The methods account for the complex depen dence structure of the response and are computationally efficient. Numeric al studies confirm that the testing approaches have the correct size and a re have a superior power relative to available competitors. We illustrate the methods on a real data application.\n DTSTART:20200131T210000Z DTEND:20200131T220000Z LOCATION:CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3T 2A7\, HEC\, salle Béton Grilli\, 3000 Ch emin de la Côte-Sainte-Catherine SUMMARY:Ana-Maria Staicu (North Carolina State University) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/ana-maria-staicu-north-ca rolina-state-university-312345 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
