Kristina O. Urtyakova, Elena M. Parilina. Opinion formation in the presence of hidden internal opinions and possibility of influencing them // Mathematical game theory and applications. Vol 17. No 1. 2025. Pp. 59-83

The paper proposes a modified concealed voter model MCVM, in which each agent in the network is represented by two vertices corresponding to her external (public) and internal (hidden) opinion. Agents exchange opinions in the external layer, and also copy the internal opinion into the external layer and vice versa. In our work, one more action has been added -- transmitting the external opinion of the agent to another agent in the internal layer. We find a formula to calculate the average time to reach consensus and compare them for MCVM and CVM. The results of numerical simulations of the process of opinion dynamics according to the proposed MCVM model are presented.
