k-1 = the lag length is reduced by 1
βi, αj, ϕj, γm, θn, ψ, τ, ω = short-run dynamic coefficients of the model's adjustment toward long-term equilibrium
λ i = speed of adjustment parameter with a negative sign;
ECTt−1 = the error correction term is the lagged value of the residuals obtained from the cointegration regression of the dependent variables on the regressors. Contains long-term information derived from the long-term cointegration relationship;
μ it = the residuals (stochastic error term/ impulses or innovations or shocks.
