| 2469975717 | two basic elements of cybernetics | recursion and feedback loop | 1 | |
| 2469975718 | recursion | reciprocal causality mutual interaction and mutual influence | 2 | |
| 2469975719 | feed back | process where information about past behaviors is fed back into the system in a circular manner. | 3 | |
| 2469975720 | feedback 2 | is behavior and is thus all pervasive for we know nothing of our own behavior but the feedback effects of our own inputs | 4 | |
| 2469975721 | Positive Feed back | Change has occurred and been accepted in the system | 5 | |
| 2469975722 | negative feedback | No change has occurred the system remains the same. the status quo remain the same | 6 | |
