Abstract

This paper discusses the agent-based lobbying where agents persuade others before/after discussion. In the lobbying, person persuade to people in order to change their mind. When an agent is persuaded successfully, his/her favor of view about decision is changed from supported thinking to unsupported thinking. In this paper, we define the strength of persuasion and acceptance and assume some rules. We show our conducted simulation of lobbying based on our defined rules and assumptions. Results of simulations show the group's solidarity is strengthened if each agent in the group has both high strength of persuasion and acceptance. When there is not difference of the strength of persuasion and acceptance between agents, the group which has a lot of opportunities to persuade has an advantage to be changed the other agent's favor of view about decision.
