A Demonstration Of The Pmf-Extraction Approach: Modeling The Effects Of Sound On Crowd Behavior, Jason Cornwell, Barry G. Silverman, Kevin O'Brien, Michael Johns

Barry G Silverman

The vast majority of psychology, sociology, and other social-science literature describing human behavior and performance does not reach the eyes of those of us working in the modeling and simulation community. Our recent work has been concerned with the extraction and implementation of Human Behavior Models(HBMs)/ Performance Moderator Functions(PMFs) from this literature. This paper demonstrates how our methodology was applied to extract models of the effects of music and sound on both individuals and groups and to implement them in a simulated environment. PMFs describing how several classes of sound affect decision-making and performance were constructed based on well-established psychological …
