Modeling position selection by individuals during information warfare in society

Resumo

In this paper, a mathematical model is developed for information warfare in society whereby an individual chooses between two suggested viewpoints. The model is based on the traditional Rashevsky framework of imitative behavior. A primary analysis of the model is conducted. The model has the form of a nonlinear integro-differential equation in which the unknown function is under the sign of the derivative and within the integration limit and acts as an argument of an exogenously given function.
