Abstract
Recently, there have been a growing number of challenges related to processes that are taking place thanks to interactions between people (their communities). Society creates a set of social behavioural phenomena (e.g., the conduct of voters during elections; the behaviour of the crowd during a terrorist attack; people’s behaviour during pandemics; institutions’ social capital development processes; the behaviour of social network users; etc.), whose knowledge of mechanisms is essential for building a sustainable society. We aim to review the operationalisation of such phenomena as the expression of logical and verbal communication in order to develop a paradigm of rational choice for the efficient understanding of their nature and relevant decisionmaking, thus bridging OR with social sciences and humanities. The creation of such a paradigm on the basis of the theory of structural equation modelling (SEM), multi-agent modelling and game theory, together with data science and mathematical sociology methods, allows the development of data-driven operationalisation for evidence-based solutions.
