Agentenbasierte Simulation in der Politikwissenschaft
2018
Dieses Kapitel vermittelt einen Einblick in Methoden und politikwissenschaftliche Anwendungsfelder agentenbasierter Simulation. Hierfur wird zunachst die Methode der Simulation charakterisiert. Anschliesend werden Grundprinzipien agentenbasierter Simulation und die besonderen Starken dieser Forschungsmethode erlautert. Agentenbasierte Simulation ist insbesondere geeignet, um die Mikro-Makro Schnittstelle, sowie die Auswirkungen der Interaktionen sozial eingebundener Akteure zu untersuchen. Im Vergleich zu anderen Methoden lassen sich Heterogenitat und begrenzte Rationalitat von Akteuren mit dieser Methode abbilden. In einem nachsten Abschnitt wird ein Uberblick uber den Forschungsstand agen…
On the Quest for Defining Organisational Plasticity: A Community Modelling Experiment
2020
PurposeThis viewpoint article is concerned with an attempt to advance organisational plasticity (OP) modelling concepts by using a novel community modelling framework (PhiloLab) from the social simulation community to drive the process of idea generation. In addition, the authors want to feed back their experience with PhiloLab as they believe that this way of idea generation could also be of interest to the wider evidence-based human resource management (EBHRM) community.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used some workshop sessions to brainstorm new conceptual ideas in a structured and efficient way with a multidisciplinary group of 14 (mainly academic) participants using PhiloLab. Th…

Before and after, individual preferences and judgments change as their underlying attitudes, values, and opinions change through discussion and deliberation. In large groups, these dynamics naturally go beyond the scope of the individual and consequently might show unexpected self-driven macroscopic systems dynamics following socio-physical laws. On the other hand, aggregated …
