JASSS - Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation
@jasssjournal.bsky.social
JASSS is an interdisciplinary, online, open access journal for the exploration and understanding of social processes by means of computer simulation
MIDAO advances #ABM by showing how specific arguments - not just abstract #socialinfluence - drive #opinion formation and #Innovation adoption. A more realistic, theory-driven perspective on #opiniondynamics.
