Resharing a post from Dr. Norbert Schwarzer and Peggy Heuer-Schwarzer
Yes, our company SIO is known for evaluating stress and strain fields in complex technical mechanical problems.
So, how can it be, that we suddenly meddle in things like psychology?
Well, the answer is quite simple: “Because we have been asked to help there. After all, math is quite general and psycho fields are not so much different from stress and strain distributions than many people think.”
On the other hand, we have always pointed out that technical solutions alone will not do in complex market situation. There is always the need for a more holistic view and thus, among many things, market, competitor and customer psychology are keys in every business. We think that we have found a way to handle these supposedly “soft” issues in a very rigorous manner. That we thereby can often use what we previously have used in discussing defects, failure mechanisms and all sorts of stress and strain fields may only partly be taken as synergy… it may – after all – well be that psychology is more a science of omnipresent, dynamic and floating fields rather than manifest objects and graphs.
It has been some time now since Prof. Robert Malone spoke of Nobel Prize material in an interview with Candance Owen (I think it was in February 2022) when he mentioned our "Mathematical Psychology".
In one of his substack articles, Prof. Malone even introduced a few of our writings that would serve as a theoretical framework for this "mathematical psychology", and explained a bit more about the project and its background.
Prof. Mattias Desmet, if you will, the star of modern psychology in the field of mass formation processes, also mentioned our approaches, some of which we launched together with him.
Shortly afterwards I gave Robert Cibis from Ovalmedia a short interview. Maybe one or the other will find something interesting in this interview (it starts at about minute 1:00):

Now, about half a year after the first public mentions of our little project towards a mathematical psychology, there were first requests as to whether we already had something to show.
Of all people, the very "experts" who hide behind mostly brainless but BOLD publicly funded 3-year projects with 20 extensions and zero results, sounded more sardonic than genuinely interested.
Well, even without any public funding, we do have something to show, unlike these "scientists".
If you are interested, you can read the first results in the following book, which we have temporarily placed at Kindle for reasons of time pressure (later it will become a "real book" at Stanford Pub. respectively Taylor&Francis):
N. Schwarzer, „Mathematical Psychology - Tools for the understanding, simulation, mitigation and potential prevention of mass formation psychoses“, Self-published, Amazon Digital Services, 2022, Kindle
For a start, there are only 227 pages with about 200 equations, but the interested reader may rest assured: the 50 illustrations allow an illustrative grasp of what has been found.
One more thing:
Our results say that not all is lost yet!!!
