If I could understand the logic in how '+' and '-' arrows work in this diagram, I would be thrilled! This would solve a lot of confusion I experience with many other diagrams. If I understand it here, I can understand it there.

I copied this diagram exactly, the first one, from the MIT paper that is the basis for Gene's diagram, "Credit Never Happened..." found in segment 5, Thinking Systemically.

I also copied the Note, exactly, from the bottom of that first diagram so I could study it to figure out these damn arrows and their confusing (to me) plus and minus labeling.

An escalation structure results from two or more competing entities with the competition taking them to somewhere none of them want to be. See also Archetypes.

A estrutura de Adversários Acidentais representa uma situação em que duas entidades que colaboram deveriam produzir crescimento acabam por acidentalmente limitar o crescimento uma da outra devido às suas ações para promover seu próprio crescimento.

copied from: Gene Bellinger (Tragedy of the Commons Archetype | Insight Maker)

A Tragedy of the Commons situation exists whenever two or more activities, each, which in order to produce results, rely on a shared limited resource. Results for these activities continue to develop as long as their use of the limited resource doesn't exceed the resource limit. Once this limit is reached the results produced by each activity are limited to the level at which the resource is replenished. See also Archetypes.
