Mean perception of security of a population with μ=0.1, ν=0.9 and ψ=0.5. Pairwise interactions occur between the three groups with a degree of preference or rejection to interactions with their own population group which gives values of homophily between 0 and 1. Higher homophily means that interactions occur between members of the same group. The vertical line, where homophily , represents random interactions. With random interactions, the mean perception of groups 1 and 2 is nearly the same, but it changes considerably on both extremes of the homophily range.
