相互作用的传染与社会强化难以区分

Interacting contagions are indistinguishable from social reinforcement

Laurent Hébert-Dufresne, Samuel V. Scarpino, Jean-Gabriel Young

摘要:

从假新闻到创新技术,许多传染病都是通过社会强化过程传播的,其中多重暴露与长期暴露于单一来源不同。通常,埃博拉或麻疹等生物制剂被认为是简单的传染病。在这里,我们证明了相互作用的简单传染病是复杂的传染病。在社会背景下,我们的研究结果突出了识别和量化机制的挑战,如社会强化,在一个无数的想法,模因和行为相互作用的世界。在生物学背景下,这种平行允许使用复杂的传染病来有效地量化传染病的非平凡相互作用。

英文摘要:

From fake news to innovative technologies, many contagions spread via a process of social reinforcement, where multiple exposures are distinct from prolonged exposure to a single source. Contrarily, biological agents such as Ebola or measles are typically thought to spread as simple contagions. Here, we demonstrate that interacting simple contagions are indistinguishable from complex contagions. In the social context, our results highlight the challenge of identifying and quantifying mechanisms, such as social reinforcement, in a world where an innumerable amount of ideas, memes and behaviors interact. In the biological context, this parallel allows the use of complex contagions to effectively quantify the non-trivial interactions of infectious diseases.
