== Herd Behavior in Economics ==
I came to this article searching for a short summary of Herding Behavior theories in Economics. Although is a small subset of "Herding Behavior", it has been widely studied phenomena in the last 25 years. I'm not active in Wikipedia and don't want to be active either, but I can suggest you some references. For example, here in wikipedia you have an article about Informational Cascades, which is a set of models that explain herding behavior (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_cascade). You can also review the classical paper of Schaferstein and Jeremy Stein (1990) in American Economic Review. You might want to consult with people working on the Economics Portal.

Proposing to merge [[sheeple]] into this article. It's a pejorative [[WP:NEO|neologism]] referring to the same subject.

Wiki wrong, no such thing as herd instinct or leader or crowd psyx etc. One can lead oneself, crowd etc or not doesn't matter. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Lyhendq|Lyhendq]] ([[User talk:Lyhendq#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lyhendq|contribs]]) 07:52, 23 September 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Sheeple Suggested edit ==
This article is basically a duplicate of a number of sections from [[Herd behavior]]; additionally, it's too minor of a topic to deserve its own article separate from [[Herd behavior]]. [[User:nneonneo|nneonneo]] <sup>[[User_talk:nneonneo|talk]]</sup> 18:55, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

== Dr. Calmes's comment on this article ==
 
Linking some discussion relevant here:
{{#section-h:Talk:Sheeple/Archives/2017|suggested edit}}
 
== No Singular Form? ==
Dr. Calmes has reviewed [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Herd_behavior&oldid=722876258 this Wikipedia page], and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:
 
From the article...
 
The word is pluralia tantum, which means it does not have a singular form.
{{quote|text=Section on Human societies, subsection on Stock market
 
From me...
It is very important to distinguish economic herding from financial contagion. Contagion refers to a situation where a shock would hit a first player and then propagate (e.g., in Diamond and Dybvig model of bank runs), whereas herding refers to a common practise. In this last class, we should distinguish pure herding (imitation, like in the famous lemmins race) from rational agents arriving at the same decision and course of action based on the same information set.}}
 
There is the term, sheeperson.
 
There also being a plural form of that term, sheepersons.
We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.

We believe Dr. Calmes has expertise on the topic of this article, since he has published relevant scholarly research:
 
== What's the difference between herd bahaior and conformation? ==
 
There's also an article conformation. I don't know what's the main difference between this article and that? [[User:Zzzwik|Zzzwik]] ([[User talk:Zzzwik|talk]]) 07:25, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
