Abstract
Keywords: Agent-based modelling; data integration; evidence integration; interdisciplinarity; social simulation EN Agent-based modelling data integration evidence integration interdisciplinarity social simulation 511 515 5 07/19/22 20220701 NES 220701 Many approaches to understanding social phenomena use either only qualitative or only quantitative methods and have well-developed traditions concerning how to interpret their data or observations and formulate their conclusions. Agent-based modelling, data integration, interdisciplinarity, evidence integration, social simulation The framework of ABM facilitates the integration of such diverse streams of evidence into a single, coherent but dynamic system (a simulation model) but without forcing any particular theoretical assumptions.
