  abstract = {Modeling crowd behavior is an important challenge for cognitive
modelers. Unfortunately, existing computational models are
typically not tied to cognitive science theories, and are rarely
evaluated against human crowd data. We investigate a general cognitive model of
crowd behavior, based on Festinger's Social Comparison Theory
(SCT). We evaluate the SCT model on general pedestrian movement,
and validate the model against human pedestrian behavior. The results show
that SCT generates behavior more in-tune with human crowd
behavior then existing non-cognitive models. Moreover, we examine the impact of the different SCT model components on the generated pedestrian behavior.},
