Table 2 Parameter definitions for the Extended Model.
From: A simulation analysis to characterize the dynamics of vaccinating behaviour on contact networks
Parameter | Meaning |
|---|---|
α | Payoff to a person who remains susceptible today |
L | Payoff to a person who has acquired immunity, either through vaccine or through infection and who did not experience long-term complications from vaccine or infection |
n inf | Number of infectious neighbors for an individual on a given day |
m inf | Number of infectious neighbors' neighbors for an individual on a given day |
λ | Probability per day of an individual becoming infected by infectious neighbors |
λ perc | Perceived probability per day of an individual becoming infected by infectious neighbors |
ϑ perc | Perceived probability per day of an individual becoming infected by infectious neighbors' neighbors |
ρ | Probability with which an individual will vaccinate today if her/his P V > P N today |
1/ι | Duration of the latent period for an infectious individual in the extended model |
1/κ | Duration of the latent period for a vaccinated individual in the extended model |
