Type of scaling | Indicator Has the intervention |
Types of entrenchment | Indicator Did the intervention |
---|---|---|---|
Simple | Attracted more members, expanded in geographic scope, or accumulated more resources? | Lock-in | Use mechanisms that gave it immediate durability? |
Self-organized | Inspired symbiotic interventions? | Self-reinforcing | Become more difficult to reverse over time? |
Positive-feedback | Attract non-target members thereby reinforcing the decisions of early adopters? | ||
Modular | Been consciously emulated in a different context? | Increasing returns | Do the benefits to participants from the intervention increase when more participants are brought on board or the longer the intervention is in place? |
