Description
Summary:Abstract Human society is organized around individual actors. When making behavioral choices, individuals engage in rational deductions based on their environment and select the ‘most appropriate’ actions. This paper introduces a social relations network information system that enables behavior nodes and their environments to observe behaviors and assign scores accordingly. The findings of this study indicate that: (1) during the process of network formation, nodes exhibit a tendency toward pro-social cooperative behavior; (2) nodes exhibit different behavioral patterns during different processes of network formation; and (3) ordinary nodes that do not actively participate in interactions also contribute to the transmission of social network information, demonstrating that every social individual serves as a node for information dissemination.
