This paper presents a hypothetical model for opinion changing, but doesn't actually try and validate that the model applies to the real world. The empirical datasets that they use are only to inform what the graphs look like, not whether the model accurately models social change. I don't like that the way this work is presented implies that this model says anything about our world.
