Majority Responses to Opinion Deviates
Small Group Research, 1992Using Moscovici 's model of social influence, this study views social influence as rooted in conflict and seeks to identify and examine the communicative behavior of the group's majority as they react to the arguments of an opinion deviate who argues against the prevailing majority view. Majority responses are examined in light of the deviate's gender,

Community Size, Perceptions of Majority Opinion, and Opinion Expression
Public Relations Research Annual, 1990A study examined structural determinants of opinion expression by merging two theoretical perspectives: the "spiral of silence" model advanced by Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann, and the structural approach to communication research offered by Phillip Tichenor, George Donohue, and Clarice Olien.

Majority Perceptions of Opinion Deviates’ Interpersonal Attractiveness
Small Group Research, 1999Employing Moscovici’s behavioral style model of social influence, this study viewed social influence as rooted in conflict and sought to determine the impact an opinion deviate’s use of evidence and linguistic style might have on majority opinion and perceptions.

Distributed opinion estimation using iterative majority voting
2011 45th Annual Conference on Information Sciences and Systems, 2011We consider a problem that is motivated by the problem of efficiently determining the opinions of a large number of people, where some fraction of the population may be untrustworthy. We propose a class of distributed algorithms called iterative majority voting (IMV), which appears to solve the problem efficiently as long as a positive fraction of the ...

Majority Rule in Nonlinear Opinion Dynamics
2013Using a nonlinear model of opinion dynamics on networks, we show the existence of asymmetric majority rule solutions for symmetric initial opinion distributions and symmetric network structure. We show that this occurs in triads as the result of a pitchfork bifurcation and arises in both chain and complete topologies with symmetric as well as ...

Lifting Majority to Unanimity in Opinion Diffusion
2020In this paper, we study an information exchange process in which a network of individuals exchanges a binary opinion. In the process, the individuals change their opinions only if a majority of their neighbours have the opposite opinion and they do it synchronously.

Modeling the Concept of Fuzzy Majority Opinion
2003In this paper we focus on the notion of majority in multi-agent (group) decision making. In group decision making the reduction of the decision makers opinions into an overall, representative opinion is usually performed through an aggregation process. In this paper we focus on the problem of defining an opinion synthesizing the majority of the experts;
