Underdispersed and overdispersed phenomena are often observed in practice. To deal with these phenomena, we introduce a new thinning-based integer-valued autoregressive process. Some probabilistic and statistical properties of the process are obtained. The asymptotic normality of the estimators of the model parameters, using conditional least squares, weighted conditional least squares and modified quasi-likelihood methods, are presented. One overdispersed real-data example and one underdispersed real-data example are given to show the flexibility and superiority of the new model.
