It is based on a balance theory introduced by Heider ( 1946 ) in that people try to sustain the cognitive balance.

Sewall Wright was the first to attach this significance to random drift and small, newly isolated populations with his shifting balance theory of speciation.
13.
These findings also realize opinion leaders'decisive role in the balance theory, which suggests that people are motivated to keep consistency among their current beliefs and opinions.
14.
During the development of the modern synthesis, Sewall Wright developed his shifting balance theory, which regarded gene flow between partially isolated populations as an important aspect of adaptive evolution.
15.
According to the Cambridge cash-balance theory, which is represented by the Cambridge equation, money's ability to store value is more important than its function as a medium of exchange.
16.
Although shifting balance theory has been influential in evolutionary biology, inspiring the theories of quantum evolution and punctuated equilibrium, little empirical evidence exists to support the shifting balance process as an important factor in evolution.
17.
To predict the outcome of a situation using Heider's balance theory, one must weigh the effects of all the potential results, and the one requiring the least amount of effort will be the likely outcome.

For many decades a long line of geneticists and botanists, including Sewall Wright, Carl Epling, and Shifting Balance theories on genetic drift in this flower using data collected by Epling and Dobzhansky in the Mojave Desert.
19.
In his 1932 paper, Wright presents the concept of an evolutionary landscape composed of a polydimensional array of gene ( allele ) or genotype frequencies and an axis of fitness, which served as a visual metaphor to explain his shifting balance theory.

It performed much better than a model trying to predict votes based on network characteristics alone ( patterns of other support / oppose votes, using e . g . ideas from balance theory like " an enemy of my enemy is my friend " ).
