Feedback mechanisms, also called feedback loops, are common logical patterns. They can be found in almost all disciplines, including economics, physiology, engineering, and psychology. There are two types of feedback loops: negative feedback loops and positive feedback loops. In this instance, negative does not mean bad, and positive does not mean good. Negative loops tend to regulate and stabilize a system while positive loops tend to spiral until a dramatic change occurs. Common examples of negative feedback loops include thermostats and the systems that maintain blood pressure in humans. Common examples of positive feedback loops include the human immune system and global climate change.
