I present a new method to test determinism, in particular the nonlinear behavior, in observed time series of pulsating stars, based on a recent prediction method which exploits the dynamical system theory. A method for filling gaps in data has thereby been constructed. Estimated bounds to the necessary embedding dimension can be obtained and chaotic divergences can be estimated.
