Modeling Cultural Segregation of the Queer Community Through an Adaptive Social Network Model

Abstract

In this study, the forming of social communities and segregation is examined through a case study on the involvement in the queer community. This is examined using a temporal-causal network model. In this study, several scenarios are proposed to model this segregation and a small questionnaire is set up to collect empirical data to validate the model. Mathematical verification provides insight into the model’s expected behavior.
