 Damon Centola's research distinguishes two types of social contagion with fundamentally different diffusion dynamics. Simple contagion (information, disease) requires only one contact for transmission and spreads best through weak ties and small-world networks. Complex contagion (behavioral change, ideology adoption) requires multiple sources of reinforcement before adoption. Counterintuitively, weak ties and small-world networks can actually slow complex contagion because a signal traveling across a weak tie arrives alone, without social reinforcement.
