Excerpts

Together, however, the seven dimensions were statistically significant at the .001 level, with an R2 value of .90. In other words, the seven dimensions of the model in combination explained 90 percent of the variance in the outcome of the forty-three insurgencies studied.
Page 88, added by David Ryan Witt.

This describes the statistical "SWORD" model at the heart of the book.

1. Military actions of the intervening power
2. Support actions of the intervening power
3. Host government legitimacy
4. Host government military actions
5. Actions against subversion
6. Unity of effort
7. External support to the insurgent
added by David Ryan Witt.

These are the seven factors that feed the SWORD model
