Homo-psychologicus: Reactionary behavioural aspects of epidemics.
We formulate an in silico model of pathogen avoidance mechanism and investigate its impact on defensive behavioural measures (e.g., spontaneous social exclusions and distancing, crowd avoidance and voluntary vaccination adaptation). In particular, we use SIR(B)S (e.g., susceptible-infected-recovered with additional behavioural component) model to investigate the impact of homo-psychologicus asp...
متن کاملHomo Reciprocans: Survey Evidence on Behavioural Outcomes
Homo Reciprocans: Survey Evidence on Behavioural Outcomes This paper complements the experimental literature that has shown the importance of reciprocity for behaviour in stylized labour markets or other decision settings. We use individual measures of reciprocal inclinations in a large, representative survey, and relate reciprocity to real world labour market behaviour and life outcomes. We fi...
متن کاملDemographic and behavioural change during epidemics
The speed and range of epidemic spreading is strongly influenced by the topology and dynamics of the relevant transmission network. This is, however, not a uni-directional relationship. The mutual interaction between epidemic spreading and the evolution of the transmission network is described within a new mathematical framework by a closed set of partial differential equations. This allows to ...
متن کاملSexual Dimorphism in the Mandible of Homo Neanderthalensis and Homo Sapiens: Morphological Patterns and Behavioural Implications
Introduction In 1980 the Journal of Human Evolution devoted an issue to papers which examined sexual dimorphism in hominid evolution. Two of the contributing authors, Smith and Trinkaus, independently investigated intersexual differences in skeletal patterning in the middle to late Pleistocene species Homo neanderthalensis. They also sought to link the patterns they identified to aspects of its...
متن کاملSPECIAL ISSUE THE HUMAN ACTOR IN ECOLOGICAL-ECONOMIC MODELS Behaviour in commons dilemmas: Homo economicus and Homo psychologicus in an ecological-economic model
In mainstream economy, behaviour is often formalised following the rational actor-approach. However, in real life the behaviour of people is typified by multidimensional optimisation. To realise this, people engage in cognitive processes such as social comparison, imitation and repetitive behaviour (habits) so as to efficiently use their limited cognitive resources. A multi-agent simulation pro...
