Opinion Dynamics and Sociophysics
Glossary Cluster Clusters are sets of neighbouring sites of the same type. Ising model Each site carries a magnetic dipole which points up or down; neighbouring dipoles " want " to be parallel. Opinion dynamics How do people change opinions? Simulations usually ignore all details of the brain and represent the opinion by one or several numbers which can be changed due to contact with others. Sc...
متن کاملOpinion Exchange Dynamics
The exchange of opinions between individuals is a fundamental social interaction that plays a role in nearly any social, political and economic process. While it is unlikely that a simple mathematical model can accurately describe the exchange of opinions between two persons, one could hope to gain some insights on emergent phenomena that affect large groups of people. Moreover, many models in ...
متن کاملNoisy continuous-opinion dynamics
We study the Deffuant et al. model for continuous–opinion dynamics under the influence of noise. In the original version of this model, individuals meet in random pairwise encounters after which they compromise or not depending of a confidence parameter. Free will is introduced in the form of noisy perturbations: individuals are given the opportunity to change their opinion, with a given probab...
متن کاملOpinion dynamics under opposition
We study a DeGroot-like opinion dynamics model in which agents may oppose other agents. As an underlying motivation, in our setup, agents want to adjust their opinions to match those of the agents they follow (their ‘ingroup’ or those they trust) and, in addition, they want to adjust their opinions to match the ‘inverse’ of those of the agents they oppose (their ‘outgroup’ or those they distrus...
متن کاملOpinion Opinion Opinion
A common notion of vision, consistent with this excerpt from the first paragraph of David Marr’s seminal book [1], is gained by considering the predicament of a person with a searchlight placed in a pitch-dark room full of unfamiliar furniture. One would hope that, by swinging the beam around, the observer will be able to recognize the objects present in the room (a cat here, an aquarium there,...
