Rumor Theory Studied By Professor At Chicago University
Anatol Rapoport of the University of Chicago develops a mathematical model for rumor spread and finds the theory aligns with a West Coast tumor study. The Washington experiment planted a rumor to 40 people then reached 80 percent of housewives within three days. Rapoport notes variables like rumor intensity and cliques influence dissemination. Armored cars in Marine Corps use go back to 1916 with speeds up to 60 mph.
