                  this investigation tests the precision of all
                  exchange theories that now contend. Beyond
                  precision, the investigation focuses on broad issues
                  of effectiveness including consistency, parsimony,
                  and whether the theories can be applied to
                  structures larger than normally studied in the
                  lab. Seeking greater parsimony, this investigation
                  introduces a new model by combining parts of two
                  contending theories. We find that all ten theories
                  have scientific merit for all can predict with some
                  effectiveness for the exchange structures
                  experimentally investigated. Nevertheless, the ten
                  vary in precision. Elementary Theory is the most
                  precise. The new Expected-value Resistance model
                  ranks second in precision and is the simplest. Both
                  apply to large networks as well as the best of the
                  other theories.},
