REFERENCES With Ratings andAnnotations

514 References

This section of the book contains the references from the first edition. To make room forthe new material in the book, however, it was necessary to prune the old references.The problem appears to be the same as that facing the pharaoh in the following cartoon:

f l\C')?f(\ \T

(((1. ?111)

/I NI11

(l'4)

"I'm afraid I'll have to lei some of you go The peopie are complaining aboutexcess prophets."

Source. iC> Omni Magazine, 1982. Reprinted with permission.

Of course, I did not trust to chance in pruning the list. Papers with empirical evidencerelevant to the conclusions in LRF stayed. Descriptive materials were dropped if morerecent descriptions did a better job. Some of the older materials were retained whenthey lent a historical perspective. In all, almost 700 references remain.

The items in the References are cross-indexed to the page in the text on which theyare cited at the end of each entry. They are identified by LRF XXX, the LRF standingfor Long-Range Forecasting and the Xs are the page numbers in the text. This is thesame procedure as used in the UPDATED BIBLIOGRAPHY and Glossary.

In the few cases where unpublished sources are cited, instructions are provided onhow to obtain a copy of the book or article. An attempt was also made to choose themost readable source when multiple sources were available. I have tried to indicatewhen books have been revised since the first edition.

The annotations tell something about the article beyond the description provided inthe text of this book. They were updated in the revised edition.

The ratings are global judgments by me and are based on the following criteria:

Is the article relevant and important to the study of forecasting methods? This is thekey factor. Some otherwise good articles are rated poorly with respect to this objective.Does the article provide new and convincing information? I am biased toward papersthat contain empirical results.Is the article well written? I have preferences for simplicity and for full disclosure.Does the article contain much information beyond the summary already provided inLRF?

These factors were used to develop a four-star system that may be interpreted as follows:

Outstanding! Scores well on all criteria above. This work should be of greatinterest to readers of LRF.

*** Very good. Is important in some respects.** Good. Contains something of value. However, the readers of LRF would find this

work of interest only in special cases.Marginal. Scores poorly on at least one of the four criteria or low on a number ofcriteria.Is of no value with respect to forecasting methods and was referenced on a sideissue.

In summary, the rating scheme provides information on the value of an item for furtherstudy of forecasting methods.

The right-hand column of each page contains coded information to help you locatestudies. There are three categories:

M What forecasting method was used?F What field was examined?E Does the study contain empirical evidence?

The code for E is Y for "yes" or N for "no." For papers designated as empirical, anindicates that the study used the method of multiple hypotheses (i.e., Ym designates anempirical study that tested two or more reasonable hypotheses). NR means that codingis not relevant. The codes for M and F are as shown here:
