Much of the work done in system dynamics has been criticized for making insufficient use of statistical estimation techniques. There have been various responses to this criticism concentrating on the other sources of information available to the model builder. One of the major hurdles to the use of statistical estimation techniques is an understanding of when they are likely to be useful in system dynamics modeling. In this paper we consider different estimation techniques and how useful they can be in system dynamics modeling. The work is meant to be a practical guide that will allow the modeler interested in statistical estimation to gain some understanding of the different approaches available. We concentrate or attention to the special problems that the system dynamics modeler is likely to encounter in estimation.
