It includes:Specific methods of explicitly representing the analyst's mental models as computational models;Dynamic simulations and interactive analytic games;The structure of an analyst's mental model and the theoretical basis for capturing and representing the tacit knowledgSecurity and professional intelligence education series.Intelligence serviceMethodologyQuantitative researchElectronic books.Intelligence serviceMethodology.Quantitative research.327.1201Waltz Edward931944MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463501303321Quantitative intelligence analysis2130208UNINA
