This paper studies an model equation model and its error-correction equivalent as a temporal aggregate of an underlying true equation in continuous time. Given a stylized fact about α0 / α1 we find that this underlying equation is not a Koyck partial adjustment model, but again an error-correction model. An illustration is given.
