在最近的预印本（电子邮件通信中的对话，预印本cond-mat/0304433）中，Eckmann，Moses和Sergi研究了电子邮件网络的时间动态。具体而言，记录了电子邮件消息与其回复之间的时间段。它将在这里显示，他们的数据同意定量的框架工作提出来解释最近的实验的响应“internauts”的新闻出版物（物理A 296（3-4）（2001）539），尽管在通信渠道，主题，时间尺度和社会经济特征的两个人口的差异。这表明在没有最后期限的情况下，人类群体的广义响应时间分布类似于t（-1），这对心理和社会研究以及动态网络的研究具有重要意义。(C)2004 Elsevier B. V.保留所有权利。
In a recent preprint (Dialog in e-mail traffic, preprint cond-mat/0304433), the temporal dynamics of an e-mail network has been investigated by Eckmann, Moses and Sergi. Specifically, the time period between an e-mail message and its reply were recorded. It will be shown here that their data agrees quantitatively with the frame work proposed to explain a recent experiment on the response of "internauts" to a news publication (Physica A 296(3-4) (2001) 539) despite differences in communication channels, topics, time-scale and socio-economic characteristics of the two population. This suggest a generalized response time distribution similar to t(-1) for human populations in the absence of deadlines with important implications for psychological and social studies as well the study of dynamical networks.
