## In short

Places DSRP alongside eleven other contemporary systems theories and analyses its worldview, scope and process structure against a common comparative framework.

## What they found (results)

Classifies DSRP as a 'process-based' theory starting from core systems processes and expanding outward, and maps how it relates to Systems Processes Theory.

These researchers were not testing DSRP. The finding is theirs; the correspondence to DSRP is drawn by this site.
