In this paper a systematic literature research is conducted to derive main characteristics and limitations of existing approaches. Then, the Model-based Effect Chain Analysis (MECA) method is introduced. Evaluation proves applicability of the method by means of a case example. This is done in the context of a project with a German automotive company. In the project 66 workshops were conducted to model certification-compliant effect chains in accordance to the UN ECE 156.</jats:p> Cambridge University Press (CUP)2022 eng 2732-527X10.1017/pds.2022.191 21885-1894 Gräßler I, Wiechel D, Koch A-S, Preuß D, Oleff C.
