Statistical Physics Of Opinion Formation: Is it a SPOOF?
[Physique statistique de la formation d'opinion : est-ce une blague ?]
Comptes Rendus. Physique, Volume 20 (2019) no. 4, pp. 244-261.

Nous présentons une brève revue basée sur le modèle non linéaire de l'électeur portant sur les problèmes et les méthodes soulevés en physique statistique de la formation d'opinion (Statistical Physics of Opinion Formation ou « SPOOF »). Nous décrivons les relations entre les modèles de formation de l'opinion, développés par les physiciens, et les modèles théoriques de réponse sociale, connus en psychologie sociale. Nous attirons l'attention sur des questions intéressantes pour les psychologues sociaux et les physiciens. Nous montrons des exemples d'études directement inspirées de la psychologie sociale comme : « indépendance contre anticonformité » ou « personnalité contre situation ». Nous résumons les résultats déjà obtenus et indiquons ce qui peut être fait d'autre, également en ce qui concerne les autres modèles du SPOOF. Enfin, nous démontrons plusieurs méthodes analytiques utiles dans le SPOOF, telles que le concept de force et de potentiel effectifs, l'approche de Landau des transitions de phase, ou les approximations de champ moyen et de paire.

We present a short review based on the nonlinear q-voter model about problems and methods raised within statistical physics of opinion formation (SPOOF). We describe relations between models of opinion formation, developed by physicists, and theoretical models of social response, known in social psychology. We draw attention to issues that are interesting for social psychologists and physicists. We show examples of studies directly inspired by social psychology like: “independence vs. anticonformity” or “personality vs. situation”. We summarize the results that have been already obtained and point out what else can be done, also with respect to other models in SPOOF. Finally, we demonstrate several analytical methods useful in SPOOF, such as the concept of effective force and potential, Landau's approach to phase transitions, or mean-field and pair approximations.
