TLDR
In this paper, a quantum social science: a non-mathematical motivation for non-quantum motivation in social science is discussed, and the Bohm-Vigier Model and path simulation are discussed.Abstract:

Quantum Models for Psychological Measurements: An Unsolved Problem
TL;DR: The applicability of QT to two basic properties in opinion polling, response replicability and question order effect, are analyzed and stand out as important unresolved problems for the application ofQT to cognition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change and social transformations: is it time for a quantum leap?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors draw attention to the emerging field of quantum social theory and consider its implications for climate change responses, and explore the methodological, metaphorical and meaningful significance of Quantum social theory for understandings of social change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is there contextuality in behavioural and social systems
TL;DR: The working hypothesis is that this may be a broadly applicable rule: behavioural and social systems are non-contextual, i.e. all ‘contextual effects’ in them result from the ubiquitous dependence of response distributions on the elements of contexts other than the ones to which the response is presumably or normatively directed.

An Application of the Theory of Open Quantum Systems to Model the Dynamics of Party Governance in the US Political System
TL;DR: In this article, the authors apply the theory of open quantum systems to social science and describe the dynamics of the voters' mental states taking into account the mental and political environment in the US election system.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of quantum-like approaches to decision making and cognition
TL;DR: A comprehensive survey of the researches and the corresponding recent developments in the fields of human decision making and cognition and the benefits of leveraging the quantum-like modeling approaches in computational domains are presented.

Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of Physical Reality Be Considered Complete?
TL;DR: Consideration of the problem of making predictions concerning a system on the basis of measurements made on another system that had previously interacted with it leads to the result that one is led to conclude that the description of reality as given by a wave function is not complete.

Transformed Up‐Down Methods in Psychoacoustics
TL;DR: A broad class of up‐down methods used in psychoacoustics with due emphasis on the related problems of parameter estimation and the efficient placing of observations is described, including examples where conventional techniques are inapplicable.

Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
TL;DR: The Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics as discussed by the authors is a seminal work in theoretical physics that introduced the theory of Hermitean operators and Hilbert spaces and provided a mathematical framework for quantum mechanics.
