Mental Model: Feedback Loops

in #mental6 years ago

Feedback loops are created when reactions affect themselves and can be positive or negative.

Consider a thermostat regulating room temperature. This is an example of a negative feedback loop. As the temperature rises, the thermostat turns off the furnace allowing the room to rest at a predetermined temperature. When the temperature falls below that predetermined temperature the furnace reignites to return the room to its equilibrium state. Other examples include body temperature and financial markets.
