This model introduces the S/O and +/- notation for depicting the relations that might exist between two elements along with why the +/- notation is preferred.
This is the collected data for the pattern of behavior of the Rookies & Pros example of the Systemic Perspective Development Guide. Though the development guide no longer exists this is a good example of captured data to create a reference mode to compare a simulation to.
Use a savings account model to investigate the manner in which inflows and outflows govern the quantity of a stock. Extend the structure to create and investigate the relationships of a growth producing reinforcing loop.
Use a bathtub model to investigate the manner in which inflows and outflows govern the quantity of a stock. Extend the structure to create and investigate the relationships of a goal seeking balancing loop.
The limits to action structure endeavors to bring a balance between a current state and a desired state though more often than not there is some limit on the action.
Use a savings account model to investigate the manner in which inflows and outflows govern the quantity of a stock. Extend the structure to create and investigate the relationships of a growth producing reinforcing loop.
This is the model of the collaborative model development process which is being developed in a collaborative method to help understand what guidelines might be developed to aid in the model development.
Often times there are a number of parameters in a model you want to set to specific values and run the model to demonstrate a particular behavior. When there are several variables involved remembering the setup is often difficult and takes time. And can you demonstrate the behavior when you're not there? Developing scenarios with Button scripts is a quick way to overcome these difficulties.
