Hi Lanchester,

welcome to the forum!

It's easy with TikZ:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{calc,positioning}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[every node/.style = {font=\sffamily}]
  \draw [-stealth]
    node (R1) {R}
    node (R2) [below = 0.75cm of R1] {R}
    node (R3) [below = 0.75cm of R2] {R}
    node (R4) [below = 0.75cm of R3] {R}
    node (B1) [xshift = 3cm] at ($(R1)!.5!(R2)$) {B}
    node (B2) [xshift = 3cm] at ($(R3)!.5!(R4)$) {B}
    (R1) edge (B1)
    (R2) edge (B1)
    (R3) edge (B2)
    (R4) edge (B2)
  ;
  \draw [-stealth, densely dashed, transform canvas={yshift=2mm}]
    (B1) edge (R1)
    (B2) edge (R3)
  ; 
  \draw [-stealth, densely dashed, transform canvas={yshift=-2mm}]
    (B1) edge (R2)
    (B2) edge (R4)
  ; 
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
