nonrecursive model

a set of relationships in which a particular variable is sometimes a cause and sometimes an effect, thus suggesting there is a reciprocal relationship between that variable and others in the model. For example, high job satisfaction may lead to increased pay and job responsibility, which in turn may further enhance job satisfaction. Compare recursive model.
