| Criterion |  Systems Thinking System Dynamics Simulation |  Systems Thinking System Archetypes |
|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | System Dynamics Simulation makes assumptions about time, delay, and feedback testable through experiments. It draws relationships, patterns, and feedback loops. The result is captured as a simulation model and scenario reports. | System Archetypes make recurring dynamics such as Fixes that Fail or Limits to Growth recognizable. It draws relationships, patterns, and feedback loops. The result is captured as an archetype assignment and lever list. |
