•
Tell the STORY as you understand it (different individuals will have different
angles to the

)
•
Identify the VARIABLES
•
Show the LINKS between variables
•
Label the RELATIONSHIPS between variables as either

O
•
Determine the NATURE OF THE LOOP as either

•
CHECK if the causal loop depicts the story as you (individual or group)
understands it.
