Identical ideal individual hypothesis

TL;DR

This paper introduces the identical ideal individual hypothesis, classifying individuals as bosonic or fermionic based on their behavior state occupancy, providing a unified explanation for personal space and behavior differentiation.

Contribution

It proposes a novel classification of individuals inspired by quantum physics, linking behavioral phenomena to the fermionic and bosonic nature of individuals.

Findings

Humans and animals are modeled as fermionic individuals.

The hypothesis explains personal space and behavior differentiation.

Provides a unified theoretical framework for social behavior phenomena.

Abstract

The identical ideal individual hypothesis is proposed. According to this hypothesis, the identical ideal individuals should be classified into two classes: the bosonic individuals and the fermionic individuals. The bosonic individuals can occupy the same behavior state while the fermionic individuals can not be in the same behavior state. We propose that human beings and many species of animals are fermionic, which can not occupy the same behavior state according to the Pauli exclusion principle. An unified theoretical explanation is given for the natures of two important and seemingly irrelated phenomena in psychology: the existence of the personal space and the behavior differentiation under high population density condition.
