LoopAnalyst (version 1.0-4)
A collection of tools to conduct Levins' Loop Analysis
Description
Loop analysis provides qualitative predictions of paramter change in a system of causally interdependent elements, where "qualitative" means sign only (i.e. increases, decreases, non change, and ambiguous). This implementation includes output support for graphs in .dot file format for use with visualization software such as graphviz (graphviz.org). Loop Analyst provides tools for the construction and output of community matrices, computation and output of community effect matrices, tables of correlations, and feedback, path and loop enumeration tools.
