Agent-Based Modeling

Due Date: April 22, 2014

Spring 2014

Psychology 120

Write a one-page summary of the paper “Us and Them.”

Your summary should include the following sections:

1. The Problem: What is the question or problem that the authors are trying to answer?

2. Agent-Based Simulation: Outline the agent-based simulation the authors developed including a description of  the rules that caused agents to form groups.

3. Main Results: What were the main results?

4. Discussion: What were the important conclusion?

You can work with others in addressing these questions, but the review must be in your own words.   A review requires about a page single spaced because each section requires about a paragraph to answer.  Carefully proof read your review so that it reads well.   Send your review to mematthews@ucdavis.edu and jcschank@ucdavis.edu.
