Spanish term or phrase: la forma funcional del modelo
The context is in an abstract and various articles talking about statistics and econometrics.

Here is some of the text:

En él su autor se plantea que muchos de los trabajos realizados en el estudio de la demanda turística, mediante modelos econométricos con forma funcional log-log, pueden no ser satisfactorios por el hecho de que las técnicas estadísticas utilizadas son válidas para series estacionarias pero no para series no estacionarias, llegando a decir que «The study of tourism demand needs to start again, discarding much of what have become established results, for this reason alone».

Después de hablar de los problemas del análisis de cointegración, del equilibrio y de la forma funcional del modelo, el texto se centra en el proceso de estimación y en la elección de una función de pérdida como criterio de bondad de ajuste.

The part I have trouble with is the part where it says "de la forma funcional del modelo" and "una funcion de perdida".
