Today I am sending what should be my final revision to an article entitled "Analyzing goal-striving processes adn a test of the generalizability of perceptual control theory" under review at Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes. In the paper I use the test for the controlled variable and system dynamics modeling. The system dynamics model is available at my web site ([http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~vancouve/research.html](http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~vancouve/research.html)). Although this model uses VensimPLE32, I have already revised it slightly given the features of DSS (thanks Fred) and I am working on additional models with DSS.

Love to see your paper, but I don't have microsoft word. Is it possible to send in ASCII?

I would appreciate a copy of your paper, Mr. Vancouver. As publisher of PCT  
books, I'm interested in learning about applications of the theory.
