  abstract = {Existing models of group behavior, in a variety of fields, leave
many open challenges. In particular,  existing models often focus
only on a specific phenomenon (e.g. flocking, pedestrian
movement), and thus must be switched depending on the goals of the
simulation. In contrast, we investigate a general cognitive model
of simulating group behaviors, based on Festinger's Social
Comparison Theory (SCT), a prominent social psychology theory. In
previous work, we have shown SCT covers a variety of pedestrian
movement phenomena. In this paper we present evidence for SCT's
generality by describing the use of the SCT model (using the Soar
cognitive architecture) in generation of imitational behavior in
loosely-coupled groups. Since the imitational behavior does not
have clear standards of evaluation, we
 propose a method for such evaluation. Based on
experiments with human subjects, we show that SCT generates behavior
more in-tune with human crowd behavior.},
