Den aktuella studien undersökte hur barn omkring perioden för ordförrådsspurten uppmärksammar generell form samt signifikanta detaljer vid visuell objektigenkänning, både avseende nya bild-ordpar samt för redan etablerade bild-ordpar. Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) registrerades i syfte att analysera hur barn på en neural nivå reagerar på kongruenta och inkongruenta presentationer av bild-ordpar,The present study investigated how children around the time of the vocabulary spurt attend to overall shape and significant detail in visual object recognition, regarding both novel picture-word pairs as well as already established picture-word pairs.

In this paper we fit non-linear models. We build Threshold Autoregressive (TAR) and Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models and estimate the parameters associated to the models, e.g. the threshold for the TAR model. The TAR and the GARCH model concept are applied to simulated data and to three empirical datasets, two River flow time series and one Blowfly data set.
