Abstract:
A model of making choices by individuals during information warfare in a society is considered. We focus on how the extent of social polarization affects the outcome of the warfare. For this purpose a society comprising two groups with diametrically opposite attitudes towards a certain problem is considered. The model is studied analytically and numerically. Some sociological interpretation is given for the results of the mathematical analysis.
Keywords:mathematical modeling, information warfare, Rashevsky's neurological scheme.
