Accurate mean-field predictions for cognitively grounded social influence dynamics with confirmation bias

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Collective opinion dynamics in human populations are frequently studied using cognitively detailed agent-based models, but their high dimensionality often limits analytical insight. Here, we demonstrate that a class of argument-exchange models incorporating confirmation bias can be reduced to a low-dimensional and analytically tractable mean-field description. Our approach maps pairwise...
