Resumen:
We present numerical simulations of a model of social influence, where the opinion of eachagent  is  represented  by  a  binary  vector.  Agents  adjust  their  opinions  as  a  result  of  randomencounters,  whenever  the  di4erence  between  opinions  is  below  a  given  threshold.  Evolutionleads to a steady state, which highly depends on the threshold and a convergence parameter ofthe model. We analyze the transition between clustered and homogeneous steady states. Resultsof the cases of complete mixing and small-world networks are compared.
