How do rumors travel and spread?

Have you seen gossip as a complex social event? Chat is one of the most popular social behavior, it is more than just derogatory entertainment. At ISTC, an agent-based social simulation laboratory (LABSS) is developing a calculation model to understand Gossip's cognitive base.

Why do we like to tell patients? Where is the tendency to be burned from irresistible? The answer may be in our cognitive process. The exchange of social information is the foundation of many activities, from partner choice to team unity. Therefore, Gossip is deeply rooted in our social behavior.

At ISTC, agent based social simulation laboratory (LABSS) research is studying gossip as an integral part of society. The team conducted a simulation experiment on the computing system and reproduced the behavior of the agent in the process of information fraud. This approach is a multi agent based social simulation that uses artificial models to study the complex mechanisms of social and cognitive artifacts.

Analysis of these simulations shows that gossip is closely related to human's important cognitive side, ie reputation. People play an important role in the selection and dissemination of information to internal representatives of themselves and others. LABSS treats the reputation as a property of the agent and as a process of disseminating belief about that property. Gossip means to discuss the process to be performed in many decision-making processes, the spreadability of reputation. It is through personal beliefs to disseminate the rumors and to understand people's reputation.

A new scientific study quantifies the spread of rumors on Twitter. In a previous study, rumors after certain events, such as fake information on the Boston marathon bomb, were tracked. This study published on Thursday was more extensive. The researcher team at Massachusetts Institute of Technology tracked lies and truth using the database of tweets written between 2006 and 2017. The author of this research aims to distinguish between non-political and genuine. They deliberately did not use the term fake news and they outsource the authenticity requirements to Snopes.com, Politifact.com and four other independent fact validation organizations. "The core concept of this paper is reliability," Alar says. "I told you boldly because I knew that it was difficult to make such remarks."

Let's face that - if you heard the rumor that you think you are totally stupid, you may not notice that your work is to spread this information widely. For example, one study examined the spread of rumors during college strikes. The most traditional rumor is more reliable. According to many surveys, people often want to feel better about themselves, but people can do this through rumors. There are several reasons for this to happen. One is to spread the rumor that you will become a familiar person going on in the world. Then people may come to you in a special and intimate way.

Every day in high school, there is a problem that greatly changes my life. There are rumors to start, rumors spread, rumors are suppressed. There is a girl who chases, the boyfriend is stolen and stolen. There is a totally unfair pop test, and the teacher obviously has their favorite. Dance is a dark and spectacular cloud approaching the horizon. The life of each of us has been ruined for more than ten or more times. With all of these in mind, we are hardly aware of the bigger problems the world faces.
