: Individuals change who they are in response to their social environment. In other words, one’s identityisdynamic,varyingaccordingtocontext(e.g.,individualspresent,place,task). Identityhasasignificant impact on an individual’s behaviour. Researchers have been interested in understanding how contextual aspects shape identity and, in turn, how identity influences behaviour. Agent-based simulation models are great tools to identify and predict behaviour associated with these identity processes. In addition, agents can employ identity-related mechanisms based on social theories to become more socially believable and similar to humans. The Social Identity Approach (SIA) is one of the most influential theories covering social aspects of one’s identity, with many of its concepts being applied in social simulation research. This paper formalizes the Dynamic Identity Model for Agents (DIMA), an existing agent-based model based on SIA, providing a detailed theoretical foundation of the model, as well as an overview of its integration as a component into a social agent architecture. In DIMA, agents perceive themselves either as distinct individuals (personal identity) or as members of a social group (social identity), acting according to their context-dependent active identity. Two simulation scenarios are presented here to illustrate the use of this model, one based on the Dictator Game and the other on a trash collection task. This work aims to guide other researchers who want to enhance their agents with the DIMA’s identity salience mechanism. As a result, they would not only be able to assess how this mechanism influences behaviour based on the context, but they would also be able to explore the dynamics between personal and social identities.
个体会随着社会环境的变化而改变自己。换句话说，一个人的身份是动态的，根据上下文(例如，个人在场、地点、任务)而变化。身份对一个人的行为有重大影响。研究人员一直感兴趣的是了解背景因素如何塑造身份，以及身份如何影响行为。基于代理的仿真模型是识别和预测与这些身份过程相关的行为的重要工具。此外，代理可以利用基于社会理论的身份相关机制，变得更具有社会可信度和与人类相似。社会认同方法(SIA)是涵盖个人身份的社会方面的最具影响力的理论之一，其许多概念被应用于社会模拟研究。本文形式化了基于SIA的基于agent的动态身份模型(Dynamic Identity Model for Agents, DIMA)，提供了该模型的详细理论基础，并概述了其作为一个组件集成到社会agent体系结构中的情况。在DIMA中，行动者要么将自己视为独特的个体(个人身份)，要么将自己视为社会群体的成员(社会身份)，根据他们依赖于情境的主动身份行事。这里提供了两个模拟场景来说明该模型的使用，一个基于独裁者游戏，另一个基于垃圾收集任务。这项工作旨在指导其他想要用DIMA的身份突出机制来增强其代理人的研究人员。因此，他们不仅能够评估这种机制如何根据情境影响行为，而且还能够探索个人身份和社会身份之间的动态关系。

: As social media becomes increasingly integrated within the fabric of our digital lives, it is clear that these platforms have a great impact on our mental well-being and interpersonal relationships. However, recent events and studies suggest that these changes are not always for the better as social media might contribute to social polarization. In this work, we leverage agent-based modelling (ABM) techniques to simulate the associated opinion dynamics of polarization in social media platforms. To accomplish this, we first develop a methodology for distinguishing between different types of polarization. This enables a more nuanced investigation into the interplay between behavior online and behavior offline. We next expand on the public-private split model by introducing a novel “virtual worlds” framework for representing an online social media platform. Agents from the neighbor-constrained “real world” can “log-in” to these virtual worlds with a certain probability and participate in a complete network; this reflects the unique socioeconomic and geographic anonymity provided through social media. Additionally, global homophilic influence is incorporated and its relationship with local virtual world structure is considered. We finally perform a sensitivity analysis over a set of model parameters, and find that the incorporation of virtual worlds can result in the simultaneous presence of different types of polarization in the real and virtual worlds. These findings align with studies on social media from the literature, and suggest that the online platform provided by social media poses unique challenges with regards to investigating the presence of polarization.

The digital society provides great opportunities for the development of public services, business and the financial sector. Consumers of services appreciated the convenience and efficiency. At the same time, with any positive developments, there are also risks. Growing advances in technology have led to the emergence and proliferation of new risks for both government and business, in particular cyber risks. The authors use the example of the insurance industry to demonstrate the importance of the IT sphere in public life and the growing need for effective cyber security tools. The study analyses the risks that pose a threat to the development of society through the example of cyber risks through the prism of the cyber insurance market. The authors argue that cyber risk insurance can reduce these risks. Due to the growing dependence of society and the state on technology and the increasing sophistication of cybercriminals, it is critical for governments and businesses to be proactive in protecting against potential cyber-attacks and other technology-driven threats. In this environment, instruments such as cyber risk insurance provide the necessary protection for the economy and society in the digital age. In addressing this issue, the authors aim to contribute to greater security in the digital world.

Since 1950, scientists have been discussing the Fermi paradox – the lack of signs of life and reason of other civilizations. This is surprising, since the latter can be millions, or maybe billions older than the earth and therefore must have the appropriate technological capabilities. The article addresses this problem from the point of view of mathematical modeling and the theory of self-organization. The dynamics of other worlds are investigated, and it is shown that their existence is determined by social instability. This instability relates to the contradiction between "cosmic people," insisting on the expansion of their civilization and "molecular," who believe that the main thing is to preserve what has been achieved. The results obtained make us take a fresh look at the management of the risks of the development of terrestrial civilization and attempts to contact other worlds.

This study presents a circadian rhythm model. Specificity of such model is in consideration of the dynamic of two hormones and a neuromediator. Such an approach was taken due to the fact that circadian rhythms dynamics are largely expressed by cyclic quantity alteration of adenosine, cortisole and melatonin throughout the day. External factors effects were explored and their influence was imitated in the model. External factors influence on hormone's dynamic was analysed. Decision making assistance algorithm of external factors usage in correcting quantities of adenosine,cortisole and melatonin, was developed.

Currently, the usual system of social relations is being reformatted. With the onset of the digital age, the role of advanced technologies in intersubjective contact is increasing. Man-made artificial agents are increasingly involved in communications at various levels. Many individual and collective subjects are increasingly striving to expand their networks of communicators through modern programs and services. The article discusses the ways of participation of these products of artificial intelligence in various spheres of public life. The nature of programmable agents is presented. The state and level of development of these products of science and technology are analyzed. The vectors of transformation of the modern communication landscape are shown. The functions performed by agents of social relations are highlighted. The expediency of using messengers, robots and chat bots that free up human resources is revealed. Based on practical examples, the possibilities, limitations and prospects for the use of artificial intelligence in the fields of media, marketing, commerce and HR are determined. The influence of messengers and bots on the transformation of communication practices has been studied. It is substantiated that today artificial agents are capable of performing only a number of technical tasks, one way or another requiring the connection of the human mind for non-trivial solutions. In conclusion, generalizations are given that constitute the theoretical and methodological basis for subsequent studies of the influence of artificial agents on the transformation of social ties and relationships.

: Gossip provides individuals a great volume of information, which allows them to make informed decisions and better adapt to the environment around them. Like all pieces of information, however, if not correctly interpreted, gossip can lead to harmful consequences for individuals. Indeed, computational models have portrayed a complex picture on how gossip impacts cooperation, identifying several limitations of the mechanism. Recent theoretical models and empirical studies have shown how interpreting the information received through gossip is a key component to understand how gossip influences individuals and groups. Thus, we built an agent-based model where we examine two reaction mechanisms for different reputation systems, in which agents first interpret the motive behind gossip and then react on the basis of this interpretation. While the first mechanism relies on an encompassing reputation system in which all pieces of information are used to inform future decisions with other group members, the second mechanism comprises a two-layer reputation system, in which agents’ actions are separate from agents’ reliability as gossipers. Our results support previous empirical findings asserting gossip as an effective way to sustain initial cooperation, and offer a solution for gossipdrivenbynegativemotives: aslongasgossipreceiversignoretheinformationprovidedbygossipersthey deem unreliable and don’t punish them by refraining from cooperative interactions with them, cooperation can be sustained.

: Simulating collective decision-making and behaviour is at the heart of many agent-based models (ABMs). However, the representation of social context and its influence on an agent’s behaviour remains challenging. Here, the Social Identity Approach (SIA) from social psychology, offers a promising explanation, as it describes how people behave while being part of a group, how groups interact and how these interactions and ingroup norms can change over time. SIA is valuable for various application domains while also being challenging to formalise. To address this challenge and enable modellers to learn from existing work, we took stock of ABM formalisations of SIA and present a systematic review of SIA in ABMs. Our results show a diversity of application areas and formalisations of (parts of) SIA without any converging practice towards a default formalisation. Models range from simple to (cognitively) rich, with a group of abstract models in the tradition of opinion dynamics employing SIA to specify group-based social influence. We also found some complex cognitive SIA formalisations incorporating contextual behaviour. When considering the function of SIA in the models, representing collectives, modelling group-based social influence and unpacking contextual behaviour all stood out. Our review was also an inventory of the formalisation challenge attached to using a very promising social-psychological theory in ABMs, revealing a tendency for reference to domain-specific theories to remain vague.
