Abstract

The construction of an excellent learning atmosphere is one of the key focuses for universities in implementing educational policies. Investigating the role of university counselors in fostering such an atmosphere has significant research value. This paper, grounded in the theory of herd behavior, initially employs evolutionary game theory. It then constructs a tripartite evolutionary game model consisting of college students, student leaders, and university counselors to discuss the system’s evolutionary stable equilibrium points. Through numerical simulations, the paper analyzes the impact of herd behavior on the strategic choices of the three parties. Finally, empirical research is conducted to validate the model’s effectiveness. The research findings provide guidance for promoting the cultivation of a learning atmosphere in universities. Analysis and empirical research confirm that, under the influence of herd behavior, college students exhibit significant mimicry in their learning behaviors towards student leaders. Additionally, the educational management level of counselors, efficient learning methods among students, and the implementation of appropriate rewards and punishment measures can effectively promote active learning among college students.
