This model is expressed as a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Parental guidance and anti-nicotine therapy are considered in the model as strategies to control and prevent the spread of addicted smoking. Addicted and non-addicted fixed points of the model are analyzed using linearization, eigenvalues, the Routh-Hurwitz test, and the basic reproduction number. Sensitivity analysis of the model parameters to the basic reproduction number was carried out to determine the influence of the parameters, and it was found that the transmission rate has a significant contribution to the spread of addicted smoking. The model with control is then related to the problem of minimizing the number of individuals addicted to smoking. By using the Pontryagin minimum principle, an optimal path is obtained that minimizes the number of individuals addicted to smoking in a specific time interval. The simulation used several assumptions and model parameter values estimated from actual data. From the optimal path with and without controls, it was found that both controls significantly reduced the number of individuals addicted to smoking.","PeriodicalId":46218,"journal":{"name":"Nonlinear Dynamics Psychology and Life Sciences","volume":"29 2","pages":"313-331"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144050756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent perspectives conceptualize psychotherapy as a complex dynamic system, integrating biological, psychological, and social factors. Research suggests that the psychotherapeutic process can be unpredictable, fluctuating, and erratic. To capture this complexity, mathematical models have been developed. One such model, a two-dimensional representation of psychotherapy timing and emotional valence, focuses on the valence (positive or negative emotional tone) of both client and therapist. Incorporating delayed reactions from both parties, the model employs delayed differential equations. This modification enables the emergence of complex dynamics, potentially exhibiting chaotic behavior characterized by a positive Lyapunov exponent. The interplay between delayed reactions and therapist distress of the client-therapist alliance drives these chaotic dynamics. Our findings have significant implications for understanding the psychotherapy process, highlighting the importance of temporal factors and therapeutic relationships.","PeriodicalId":46218,"journal":{"name":"Nonlinear Dynamics Psychology and Life Sciences","volume":"29 2","pages":"291-311"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144054347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Simultaneous Emergent Phenomena: Leadership and Team Synchrony.","authors":"Stephen J Guastello, Nicholas R Peters, Anthony F Peressini","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Emergent phenomena exhibit interesting dynamics when considered individually. The present article examines two emergent processes that could be occurring simultaneously in an intense team interaction: the emergence of leaders and the emergence of autonomic synchrony within teams making dynamic decisions. In the framework of panarchy theory and related studies on complex systems, autonomic synchrony would be a fast dynamic that is shaped or controlled by leadership emergence, which is a slower dynamic. The present study outlines three distinct statistical distributions - the swallowtail catastrophe model for phase shifts, inverse power laws that indicate fractal processes, and lognormal distributions - that are known to characterize emergent processes of different types. The objective was to determine the extent to which the two emergent processes reflected the same dynamics. Research participants were 136 undergraduates who were organized into teams of three to five members playing the computer-game Counter-Strike while wearing GSR sensors to measure autonomic arousal levels in a steady stream. After approximately two hours of interaction, team members rated each other on leadership behaviors. Autonomic synchrony was analyzed as a driver-empath process that produced individual driver scores (the total influence of one person on the rest of the group) and empath scores (the total influence of the group on one person). Results showed that leadership emergence displayed the swallowtail configuration that was consistent with prior studies. Autonomic synchrony started as a simpler process and unfolded into a swallowtail catastrophe toward the end of the experimental session. Lognormal distributions were second-best representations of all variables. Inverse power laws were least descriptive of any of the research variables. The implications of the temporal dynamics of the co-emerging processes for training and team development are discussed.","PeriodicalId":46218,"journal":{"name":"Nonlinear Dynamics Psychology and Life Sciences","volume":"29 1","pages":"59-111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142928299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dynamics that emerge from mutual interactions among the SA-agents exhibit two collective-level properties that mirror living systems, thus making these models suitable for societal/biological simulation. The properties are: emergent intelligence and collective agency. The former means there is observable intelligent behavior as a unitary collective entity. The latter means the collective exhibits observable adaptability that enables it to reorganize its network structure to meet its objectives in response to a changing environment. In this study, we generate these capabilities in a single, simple case. We do this first by letting a temporal complex network among SA-agents emerge and second by changing conditions in the ecosystem to test adaptability. This latter phase is done by introducing an artificial virus that infects SA-agents during interactions and can remove (or 'kill') the SA-agents. We then study the dynamics of the contagion within the collective as the virus spreads through the population and impacts collective reward-seeking performance. Specifically, we compare two strategies to control the spread of the virus: exogenous top-down control and endogenous bottom-up self-isolation strategies.","PeriodicalId":46218,"journal":{"name":"Nonlinear Dynamics Psychology and Life Sciences","volume":"29 1","pages":"135-164"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142928289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the study's findings, a new approach for addressing wicked human services problems is proposed. In Australia, a Systemic Innovation Lab approach that incorporates a customized software tool has been used to address social-ecological wicked problems. Both, the lab approach and the software tool are based on a framework that is underpinned by dissipative structures and self-transcending constructions theories. This article uses a phenomenon-based approach, as well as insights from self-transcending constructions theory, to discuss why the Systemic Innovation Lab approach and its software tool have not been utilised to address wicked human services problems. This is because when addressing wicked human services problems, the containing, constraining and constructional operations of self-transcendent construction are different than those for wicked social-ecological problems. The results also suggest the need for new software tools to satisfy disability accessibility standards. In response to these identified needs, the article argues that a Systemic Landscape of Practice Lab approach which incorporates a spreadsheet tool that satisfies disability accessibility standards is needed to address wicked human services problems.","PeriodicalId":46218,"journal":{"name":"Nonlinear Dynamics Psychology and Life Sciences","volume":"29 1","pages":"165-188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142928287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
