Understanding the Social Power Index (SPI)
Understanding the Social Power Index (SPI)
The Fameocracy Social Power Index (SPI) is a research-based formula developed by H. Laubscher to quantify social influence in the digital age. Unlike traditional measures of status (such as wealth or job title), SPI offers a multi-dimensional view of power, combining psychological, social, economic, and reputational elements into a single score.
This model helps us understand how and why certain individuals rise to prominence, and how fame can be broken down, measured, and studied scientifically.
Each component reflects a different dimension of social power:
What Makes SPI Different?
What Makes SPI Different?
It’s not about who’s the richest.
SPI recognizes that a billionaire without public influence may have less power than a media-savvy entrepreneur with strong public appeal.
It balances visibility and trust.
Fame without positive sentiment or network support doesn’t translate to sustained power.
It adjusts for real-world volatility.
Factors like luck, risk, and energy cost help prevent overinflated scores and reflect real dynamics of maintaining influence.
