SOE 13: Focus Session: Opinion Formation

Donnerstag, 19. März 2020, 09:30–11:30, GÖR 226

The dynamics of opinion formation is quite an interdisciplinary topic. It has gained increased attention in recent years since the emergence of filter bubbles and opinion polarization have been recognized as major societal problems. Further on, access to social media data has increased the options to study opinion formation data-driven. This focus session will present recent theoretical and empirical research on the dynamic of opinion formation for binary as well as for continuous opinions. (Session organized by Jan Lorenz)
