Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-22856-z, published online 28 October 2022.
The original HTML version of this Article contained an error in Figure 2, where panels (e) and (f) did not display correctly.
Opinions of individuals starting from a random distribution [− 1.0, 1.0] under a range of conditions. Red dots denote individuals who are amplifying in that timestep. Grey areas indicate opinions outside the initial opinion range. Y-axis shown from − 2.0 to 2.0 (double the initial opinion range) for clarity; in (c) to (f), opinions exceed this range and become even more extreme.
The original Figure 2 and accompanying legend appear below.
This error has now been corrected in the HTML version of the Article; the PDF version was correct from the time of publication.
