Social Mood Conference
Saturday, April 11, 2015Atlanta, Georgia
Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center
The Big Data revolution has dramatically expanded the amount of information at our disposal about human social behavior. One of this area’s key findings is confirmation of what psychologists and behavioral finance scholars have known for decades: how we feel influences what we do. Until recently, most work in these fields centered on individuals. Now, with data from social media, the Internet, smartphone technology, large corpuses of textual data like Google Books, and more, we are increasingly able to zoom-out and move the unit of analysis from the individual to the social group. As research progresses, it will be crucial to stay abreast of the latest developments across many fields and for researchers to cross-pollinate their work with insights, frameworks, theories and tools from adjacent disciplines. We invite you to join us on April 11 in Atlanta for a day of intriguing presentations and lively discussions about the relationship between social mood and social behavior, broadly under the banner of socionomic theory, a model which uses financial market data as a social mood indicator to forecast cultural and behavioral trends. For more conference information, visit www.socialmoodconference.com, and visit www.robertprechter.com/socionomic-theory for more background on the theory.
