Abstract

The K, θ, M Model is a general management model that uses two or three parameters to describe many uncertain processes in modern society. It is a bridge across which natural sciences help social sciences to be more quantitative. Numerous approximate criteria and formulas can be deduced from this model, which can serve as a partly quantitative and partly qualitative language to discuss social processes. At a 1984 Symposium of Management Science in Beijing this thesis was first presented in simplified form under the title “Low Risk Decision Making by using the ‘Intellectual‐Onsager‐Shock Model’” [1] and later elaborated for the Beijing Institute of Management, Chinese Academy of Sciences [2]. This communication is a condensed and modified version of both papers. © 1988 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
