Massive Case Study of Opinion Distribution in a Relationship with Mixed Trust and Distrust

Abstract: The simulations in this paper are based on the theory of opinion dynamics, which incorporates both Opinion A and Opinion B, a case that is the inverse of Opinion A, in human relationships. It was confirmed that aspects of consensus building depend on the ratio of the trust coefficient to the distrust coefficient. In this study, the ratio of trust to distrust tended to vary like a phase transition around 55%, but we wanted to see if the same phenomenon could be confirmed in large-scale cases. In the previous case studies, this tendency has been observed from N = 300 to N = 1600 , and we will discuss the case of N = 10000 with N = 3000. By verifying the extent of the phenomenon on the social scale, we intend to consider simulation items for consensus building, such as consideration of the sensitivities of topics in online and offline opinion formation.
