Talk:Exogeny

Dictionary entry?

Can anyboyd tell me why this is a encyclopedia page and not just a dictionary entry in the wikipedia? Pdbailey 03:39, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Can anyone comment on what they think the best course of action is? This may help: WINAD Pdbailey 21:14, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

The arguments for keeping this article in Wikipedia would be as in WP:AfD/Endogenous. Essentially, if-and-when this article is properly fleshed-out, it will be more than a dictionary entry. —SlamDiego_←T 16:19, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Consistency

Perhaps the form of this article should be reconciled with that of Endogeny. Or better yet, the pages should be merged into one article until the article is large enough to be split into two.134.10.125.163 (talk) 04:02, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Exogeneous variables in economics

"In an economic model, an exogenous change is one that comes from outside the model and is unexplained by the model. For example, in the simple supply and demand model, a change in consumer tastes or preferences is unexplained by the model and also leads to endogenous changes in demand that lead to changes in the equilibrium price. Similarly, a change in the consumer's income is given outside the model. Put another way, an exogenous change involves an alteration of a variable that is autonomous, i.e., unaffected by the workings of the model."

Do you mean that the model input is independent? El Pollo Diablo (Talk) 16:10, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi El Pollo Diablo! Please be sure to be polite in your section headings. The article as written is consistent with the definitions I have head in economics circles. The model input is not independent of the outcome, otherwise it would have no correlation with the outcome and would not be useful in your model. It is simply determined outside the model. An example would be where a country's resources might be predictive of their GDP; countries with better resources have higher GDP's. This is in contrast to something like employment rates, which might be considered an endogeneous variable because there could be a positive feedback loop between employment rate and GDP (as you get more people employed, they have more money, so the economy grows bigger, but this in itself creates jobs, causing the employment rate to fall further still)

Dr. Schudy's comment on this article

"See also" I think it would be nice to add here a link to Endogeneity (econometrics) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endogeneity_(econometrics)), which explains the role of (and lack of) "exogenous changes" for causal inference in statistical analysis / empirical models (such as regression analysis) in more detail.

We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.

Dr. Gottschalk's comment on this article

Dr. Gottschalk has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:

This article briefly reviews the economic literature on exogeneity. It then goes on to examine similar concepts in other fields. I do not know this literature, so I suggest you send the article to reviewers in other fields

We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.

We believe Dr. Gottschalk has expertise on the topic of this article, since he has published relevant scholarly research:

Proposed retitling/recasting of article

Shouldn't this article be moved to Endogeny and exogeny and tweaked here and there so it explains both terms in the numerous contexts it covers? Given how the two terms are always complementary I think it's better to treat them in one place, like has been done for Horizontal and vertical or for Relative and absolute tense. Any thoughts? – Uanfala 10:10, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Merge proposal: Exogeny into Endogeny (biology)

I propose to merge Exogeny into Endogeny (biology) since they cover sufficiently similar topics that they can be explained within the same context. Jamgoodman (talk) 19:04, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

It makes sense for Endogeny (biology) to be renamed to Endogeny and exogeny (biology) and expanded accordingly, but I don't see why Exogeny should be merged there: the biological aspect is only one of several that are covered here. – Uanfala (talk) 20:15, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Ethnogenesis missing

Cultures can emerge endogenously or exogenously. This has relevance in the discussion of indigenousness. Arminden (talk) 12:07, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
