The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Contrasting Approaches to Perceiving and Acting With Others (2006, methodology): “Much of this research involves computer simulations (Vallacher et al., 2002), which reveal the unfolding of system-level phenomena over long time spans and how social structure emerges from self-organizing dynamics—a process difficult to examine using more traditional measurement techniques.”
Achieving Sustainable New Happiness: Prospects, Practices, and Prescriptions (2012, background): “This suggests that each person has a built-in “attractor” for happiness, which he or she can orbit around, but never leave behind (Vallacher & Nowak, 2002).”
Complex dynamical systems in social and personality psychology: theory, modeling, and analysis (2014, unknown): “Vallacher, Read, and Nowak (2002) offer an excellent review of this rise and describe how dynamical theory and models can be employed to characterize an array of socially relevant behaviors, such as attitude change, social judgment, and selfperception (for reviews, see Nowak & Vallacher, 1998;…”
Attitudes and persuasion. (2006, unknown): “The dynamic nature of social influence is evident not only in cognitive adjustments within an individual but also in structural adjustments within a group (Latané & Bourgeois 2001; Prislin et al. 2000, 2002; Vallacher et al. 2002b).”
