Agent-based approach to simulation of students attidudes

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents agent-based approach to the research of dynamics of students or pupils attitude to some general behaviour standards in the society or the right understanding of some phenomenon. This attitude was measured in score points within range between 1 and 10. Students were modelled as groups of 12, 25 and 50 agents. In every day of the 180 model-days they occurred in 3 different environments –in classes, in breaks between classes and at home. During breaks agents exchanged ideas between themselves. In classes agents received high-value messages from teachers. At home they received randomly distributed messages from their parents. It appeared that students with low scores improved their scores by about 1,5 points during the academic year and the scores of maximal score owners decreased but less than by 0,5 point.
