What is Causality

Encyclopedia of Information Science and Technology, Third Edition
The relationship between cause and effect (result). In system dynamics, there are two types of causality: positive and negative. Positive causality means a result element changes to the same direction as its cause element changes to. Negative causality indicates a result element changes to the opposite direction to its cause element’s change. This is also called a causal relationship.

Racing Ahead With Innovation: The Case for Hybrid Models and Ethical Decisions
A term to describe cause and effect. Several types of causality are recognized: linear (x causes y and a doubling in x causes a doubling in y), circular (x causes a change in y which in turn causes a change in x), recursive (x is caused by the system that is x – society is made of people that bear children that make up society), nonlinear (as opposed to linear the change in x causes a change in y that follows a power law, for example).
