Abstract

Highlights: [•] A bounded confidence opinion model with random confidence threshold is proposed. [•] The critical confidence threshold is identified analytically. [•] Numerical simulations reveal the dependency of consensus speed and transition sharpness on distribution of D. [•] Results hold for Barabási–Albert scale-free networks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
