In the citing paper
“Such representations can promote understanding of the systems interrelationships by highlighting key aspects of a certain system.”
From The Theoretical Nature of Systems Thinking. Perspectives on Systems Thinking in Biology Education (2018) · cites this paper as Verhoeff et al., 2013
In the citing paper
“The qualitative model that is developed represents several levels of biological organization, interaction between components, a systems boundary, and the open nature of all included systems (Verhoeff et al., 2013).”
From The Theoretical Nature of Systems Thinking. Perspectives on Systems Thinking in Biology Education (2018) · cites this paper as Verhoeff et al., 2013
In the citing paper
“The most appropriate representation of a system seems to be a hierarchical systems model, derived from the GST (Verhoeff et al., 2008(Verhoeff et al., , 2013)).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
