'''Feedback''' describes the situation when output from (or [[information]] about the result of) an [[event]] or [[phenomenon]] in the past will influence the same event/phenomenon in the present or future. When an event is part of a chain of [[Causality|cause-and-effect]] that forms a [[circuit]] or loop, then the event is said to "feed back" into itself. | '''Feedback''' describes the situation when output from (or [[information]] about the result of) an [[event]] or [[phenomenon]] in the past will influence the same event/phenomenon in the present or future.
