Deterministic Sensitivity Analysis — Systematic Parameter Variation for Model Robustness

Deterministic Sensitivity Analysis (DSA) tests how model outputs change when individual or combined input parameters are varied across plausible ranges, one at a time or in structured combinations, without invoking probabilistic sampling. It is the standard approach in economic modeling, decision trees, and mathematical programming to identify which parameters drive conclusions and to demonstrate model robustness to regulators, reviewers, and stakeholders.
