摘要
This paper focuses on the use of computer models for making inferences about the effects of social policies. In order to improve the reliability of such inferences, the article proposes a new methodology which is based on the systematic search of model output which either confirms or falsifies the aforementioned inferences. The successful use of this new methodology is exemplified by the analysis of a simulation model which describes the dynamics of long-term unemployment.
