  • Agent-based modeling for psychological research on social phenomena

    Jiin Jung, John H Miller et al.•ARTICLE•American Psychologist•2025

    This article describes seven potential benefits of incorporating agent-based modeling (ABM) as a core research methodology for psychological research on social phenomena: building formal theories of complex social systems, validating multilevel causation, understanding temporal and nonlinear dynamics, demonstrating the completeness of theories, balancing consideration of people with their environments, bridging psychology and policy, and identify…

  • Ex Machina: Coevolving Machines and the Origins of the Social Universe

    John H Miller, John Miller•BOOK•Ex Machina•2022

    If we could rewind the tape of the Earth’s deep history back to the beginning and start the world anew—would social behavior arise yet again? While the study of origins is foundational to many scientific fields, such as physics and biology, it has rarely been pursued in the social sciences. Yet knowledge of something’s origins often gives us new insights into the present. In Ex Machina, John H. Miller introduces a methodology for exploring system…

  • Deep ancestry of collapsing networks of nomadic hunter–gatherers in Borneo

    Open Access•J S Lansing, Guy S Jacobs et al.•ARTICLE•Evolutionary Human Sciences•2022•Cited by: 2•References: 5

    Theories of early cooperation in human society often draw from a small sample of ethnographic studies of surviving populations of hunter–gatherers, most of which are now sedentary. Borneo hunter–gatherers (Punan, Penan) have seldom figured in comparative research because of a decades-old controversy about whether they are the descendants of farmers who adopted a hunting and gathering way of life. In 2018 we began an ethnographic study of a group …

  • Cultural drift, indirect minority influence, network structure, and their impacts on cultural change and diversity

    Jiin Jung, Aaron Bramson et al.•ARTICLE•American Psychologist•2021•Cited by: 1

    The present research investigates how psychological mechanisms and social network structures generate patterns of cultural change and diversity. The two psychological mechanisms studied here are cultural drift and indirect minority influence; the former is parameterized by an error rate ε) and the latter by a leniency threshold (λ). The patterns of cultural change are examined in terms of magnitude (small vs. large), speed (gradual vs. rapid), an…

  • Monoamine oxidase inhibitory activity in tobacco smoke varies with tobacco type

    Amy Lewis, Amy J Lewis et al.•ARTICLE•Tobacco Control•2011

    The present study shows that the ratio of nicotine to MAO inhibitory activity varies depending on the type of tobacco product used. The roll-your-own tobaccos tested delivered more tar and more MAO inhibitory activity per mg of nicotine than the factory-made cigarettes. These findings suggest that smokers of roll-your-own tobacco may experience greater difficulty in stopping smoking

  • The Glacier Moves: Japan's Response to U.S. Security Policies

    John H Miller•ARTICLE•Asian Affairs An American Review•2003

    The Bush administration came into office with high hopes for strengthening the U.S.-Japan alliance. As was adumbrated in the October 2000 Armitage Report-a bipartisan road map of the future of the relationship assembled by a group of Japan experts, including several tapped for senior positions in the new administration-the goal was a closer and more equal partnership on the model of that between America and Britain.' (The emphasis on Japan is als…

  • Political Parties and Electoral Landscapes

    Open Access•Ken Kollman, John H Miller et al.•ARTICLE•British Journal of Political…•1998•Cited by: 28

    We study the relationship between voters' preferences and the emergence of party platforms in two-party democratic elections with adaptive parties. In the model, preferences of voters and the opposition party's platform determine an electoral landscape on which the challenging party must adaptively search for votes. We show that changes in the underlying distribution of voters' preferences result in different electoral landscapes which can be cha…

  • Rational Cooperation in the Finitely Repeated Prisoner's Dilemma: Experimental Evidence

    James Andreoni, John H Miller•ARTICLE•The Economic Journal•1993•Cited by: 50

    This paper presents experiments designed to examine the sequential equilibrium reputation hypothesis in the finitely repeated prisoner's dilemma. The authors test the hypothesis by controlling the subjects' ability to build reputations and by manipulating their beliefs that their opponent is irrational or altruistic. The responses of subjects strongly support the sequential equilibrium prediction. The results also suggest an important role for 'h…

  • Adaptive Parties in Spatial Elections

    Open Access•Ken Kollman, John H Miller et al.•ARTICLE•American Political Science Review•1992•Cited by: 97•References: 13

    We develop a model of two-party spatial elections that departs from the standard model in three respects: parties' information about voters' preferences is limited to polls; parties can be either office-seeking or ideological; and parties are not perfect optimizers, that is, they are modelled as boundedly rational adaptive actors. We employ computer search algorithms to model the adaptive behavior of parties and show that three distinct search al…
