摘要
We propose here a model to simulate the process of opinion formation, which accounts for the mutual affinity between interacting agents. Opinion and affinity evolve self-consistently, manifesting a highly nontrivial interplay. A continuous transition is found between single and multiple opinion states. Fractal dimension and signature of critical behavior are also reported. A rich phenomenology is presented and discussed with reference to corresponding psychological implications.
