Agent-Based Modeling

Cognitive diversity promotes collective creativity: an agent-based simulation

In this project (a collaboration with Kristian Tylén from Aarhus University), we use agent-based simulations to investigate: a) whether and how performing a divergent thinking task with others makes us come up with better and more creative solutions; b) how this is modulated by cognitive diversity within the group. We have published a paper on the 2022 CogSci proceedings, which is available here: https://escholarship.org/uc/item/58v5d82w Code is publicly available [here](https://github.com/rbroc/diversity_abm) and follow-ups are in progress.
