Simulators, Myth, and Ritual in Higher Education.
Masland, Andrew T.
Research in Higher Education, v18 n2 p161-77 1983
Evaluations of widely used computer simulators identify a number of technical and organizational factors that are related to the simulator's success. Two aspects of organizational behavior that previous investigations have ignored--myth and ritual--are identified, and cost simulation models and a discussion of their evaluation are provided.
