The aim of the project Ideologias@Home is to study how people in a certain region evolve ideologically over time with respect to an idea. When an idea is introduced in a society, the population is divided naturally into four groups:
- Extremists: those who defend the idea extremely.
- Moderates: those who defend the idea moderately.
- Opponents: those who are against the idea.
- Abstentionists: those who do not care, abstain or have not opinion.
People change their minds because of peer pressure, the influence of mass media or because because they come to a different conclusion of their own accord. Under this assumption, we propose dynamic models, determine the parameters, predict trends and analyse results.
