Mapping complex public health problems with causal loop diagrams [PDF]
International Journal of EpidemiologyAbstract This paper presents causal loop diagrams (CLDs) as tools for studying complex public health problems like health inequality. These problems often involve feedback loops—a characteristic of complex systems not fully integrated into mainstream epidemiology.

Causal loop diagrams as a de-escalation technique [PDF]
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2015 Escalation of commitment, the tendency of decision makers to keep on investing in losing courses of action, has been shown to be a costly decision bias that affects many areas of decision making. Even though escalation is a widely studied phenomenon, there has been comparatively little research on how to avoid this bias. The present study focuses on de-

Systems, 2017 Growing complexity represents an issue that can be identified in various disciplines. In system dynamics, causal loop diagrams are used for capturing dynamic nature of modelled systems.

Using Causal Loop Diagrams to Conceptualize Groundwater as a Social-Ecological System
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022 Groundwater systems are social-ecological systems (SES) in which human communities, groundwater dependent ecosystems and groundwater resources are linked, and therefore, cannot be studied in isolation.

, 2022 AbstractThis chapter introduces Causal Loop Diagrams. We explore what exactly Causal Loop Diagrams are, describe how you can use them, take a step back to consider common issues and ‘tricks of the trade’, as well as present a brief history of the development of the method. This chapter can be viewed as a companion to Chap.

A systems approach to understanding injury care in LMICs using causal loop diagrams [PDF]
BMJ Global HealthBackground Around 40% of mortality after injuries is avoidable with access to quality care. Investments in interventions which maximise the number of injured persons who access and receive quality care are paramount, especially in low-resourced settings.

Using network analysis to identify leverage points based on causal loop diagrams leads to false inference [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Network analysis is gaining momentum as an accepted practice to identify which factors in causal loop diagrams (CLDs)—mental models that graphically represent causal relationships between a system’s factors—are most likely to shift system-level behaviour,
