Özet
Schelling’s model is thoroughly researched because it highlights a crucial human phenomenon known as segregation. The term “segregation” is used to describe the practice of dividing up the human population into several groups. The policies of governments, environmental concerns, economic concerns, familial dynamics, and so on, all have a role in shaping the ways in which people are separated from one another. All of these factors contribute to segregation by influencing people’s preferences in different ways. The studies have evaluated each factor separately and demonstrated how each variable influences segregation dynamics. In this study, we investigate the effect of agents’ evolutionary (dynamic) behavior on segregation dynamics. Behavioral patterns of agents are made interaction-dependent, and the results of this interaction-driven evolutionary model are compared to those of the original model. The results demonstrate that evolutionary behavior leads to a higher number of subgroups when the model converges than the number of subgroups in the original model. Furthermore, because the evolutionary model is more complex than the original model, it converges later and produces results that are more variable than those of the original model.
