• Wild Cards
  • 1.

    This sourceSystematizes wild-card methodology into candidate generation, mechanism analysis, impact assessment, probability characterization, and integration components; foundational to subsequent foresight-methodology literature.

  • The method's formal codification is usually traced to John L. Petersen's Out of the Blue: How to Anticipate Big Future Surprises (1997; second edition 1999), with subsequent methodological development by Mendonça and colleagues

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
