HOW TO RANK SOCIAL GROUPS AND PEOPLE
Let
- C = a social clique or community
- B(C) = protective benefits of the clique (structure, support, discipline, purpose, prosocial norms)
- R(C) = risk factors inside the clique (stress, isolation, exposure to harmful influences)
- H(C) = overall susceptibility to harmful penetration (drugs, harmful thoughts, etc.)
We can model:H(C)=B(C)+ϵR(C)
Where
- Lower H(C) = lower susceptibility
- Higher B(C) decreases vulnerability
- Higher R(C) increases vulnerability
- ϵ is a small positive constant to avoid division by zero
✅ Comparing Cliques (Abstract Example)
If you want to express the idea “clique A offers more protective benefit than clique B,” you can encode it like:B(C1)>B(C2)>B(C3)
Which leads to:H(C1)<H(C2)<H(C3)
This captures the ranking mathematically, without claiming anything factual about real groups.
