ISM

Interpretive Structural Modeling with MICMAC

Ordering criteria into hierarchy levels with explained relations (TISM) and influence-dependence analysis (MICMAC).

Suited for

Modeling indicator relations, identifying driving variables and presenting the final research model.

Data needed

Pairwise relation matrix (yes/no with rationale) and the indicator list.

Software
What you receive

Reachability matrix, hierarchy levels, the TISM model with explained links and the MICMAC chart.

Common questions

ISM or TISM?

TISM explains “why” each link holds; recent studies usually prefer it.

What does MICMAC tell us?

Which quadrant each indicator falls in: autonomous, dependent, independent or linkage.
