Abstract

We study the q-voter model with bounded confidence on the complete graph. Agents can be in one of three states. Two types of agents behaviour are investigated: conformity and independence. We analyze whether this system is qualitatively different from a corresponding model without bounded confidence. The key result of this paper is that the system has two phase transitions: one between order-order phases and another between order-disorder phases.
