Asthma Example


12 / 26

As an example, we present the process of how a conceptual model might be drawn for the issue of asthma. In this example, the thought-process starts with Human State. However, it could start anywhere in the DPSIR. For example, a conceptual model might be built around a given socio-economic driver (transportation concerns), pressure (nutrient loading), or response (waste management options).

To begin discussion, we ask 'What is the human condition of concern?'. For this example, it is 'Asthma'.
