social simulations

Social simulations are computer-based models that mimic human behaviors and interactions within societies. They help researchers understand how individuals and groups behave, make decisions, and influence each other over time. By creating virtual environments that mirror real-world social dynamics, these simulations can explore complex phenomena such as crowd movements, opinion formation, or the spread of ideas and diseases. They are valuable tools for testing theories, planning policies, and studying societal changes without real-world risks or costs.
