Dueling biological and social contagions [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractNumerous models explore how a wide variety of biological and social phenomena spread in social networks. However, these models implicitly assume that the spread of one phenomenon is not affected by the spread of another. Here, we develop a model of “dueling contagions”, with a particular illustration of a situation where one is biological ...

Co-diffusion of social contagions
New Journal of Physics, 2018 Prior social contagion models consider the spread of either one contagion at a time on interdependent networks or multiple contagions on single layer networks or under assumptions of competition. We propose a new threshold model for the diffusion of multiple contagions.

Social contagions on weighted networks [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2017 We investigate critical behaviors of a social contagion model on weighted networks. An edge-weight compartmental approach is applied to analyze the weighted social contagion on strongly heterogenous networks with skewed degree and weight distributions.

Spreading of components of mood in adolescent social networks [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Recent research has provided evidence that mood can spread over social networks via social contagion, but that, in seeming contradiction to this, depression does not.

Competition between simple and complex contagion on temporal networks
Physical Review ResearchBehavioral adoptions of individuals are influenced by their peers in different ways. While in some cases an individual may change behavior after a single incoming influence, in other cases multiple cumulated attempts of social influence are necessary for
