Each aspect influences the other: social networks provide the conduits via which groups recruit new members and groups provide the context in which new social ties are formed. Given that the resources of individuals are finite, groups can be considered to compete with one another for the time and energy of their members. Such competition is likely to have an impact on the way in which social structure and group affiliation co-evolve. While many social simulation models exhibit group formation as a part of their behaviour (e.g., opinion clusters or converged cultures), models that explicitly focus on group affiliation are less common. We describe and explore the behaviour of a model in which, distinct from most current models, individual nodes can belong to multiple groups simultaneously. By varying the capacity of individuals to belong to groups, and the costs associated with group membership, we explore the effect of different levels of competition on population structure and group dynamics. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0219525910002712","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,9,6]],"date-time":"2010-09-06T05:28:29Z","timestamp":1283750909000},"page":"501-517","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["COMPETITION AND THE DYNAMICS OF GROUP AFFILIATION"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"NICHOLAS","family":"GEARD","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton, Southampton, SO17 1BJ, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"SETH","family":"BULLOCK","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electronics and Computer Science, University of Southampton, Southampton, SO17 1BJ, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,11,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"rf2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0022002797041002001"},{"key":"rf3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1475-682X.1965.tb00598.x"},{"key":"rf4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1165821"},{"key":"rf6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1103\/RevModPhys.81.591"},{"key":"rf7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0022002707307632"},{"key":"rf8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-4446.2006.00116.x"},{"key":"rf9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1287\/mnsc.1030.0134"},{"key":"rf10","volume-title":"Human Society","author":"Davis K.","year":"1965"},{"key":"rf11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1142\/S0219525900000078"},{"key":"rf12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10588-008-9052-0"},{"key":"rf13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/227352"},{"key":"rf14","volume-title":"Simulation for the Social Scientist","author":"Gilbert N.","year":"1999"},{"key":"rf15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/2095965"},{"key":"rf16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevE.70.025101"},{"key":"rf17","volume":"5","author":"Hegselmann R.","journal-title":"Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation"},{"key":"rf18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevE.74.056108"},{"key":"rf19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1142\/S0219525908001799"},{"key":"rf20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1257\/aer.97.3.890"},{"key":"rf21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevE.78.016103"},{"key":"rf22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevE.77.016102"},{"key":"rf23","volume-title":"Society: An Introductory Analysis","author":"MacIver R.
