It can be clearly seen in the human social world. The different classes of social bonds in a complex society revolve around, and are intimately related with, the communicative relationships that every individual entertains—essentially via face-to-face conversation. In the present work we have investigated the fundamental metrics of both social bonds and communicative exchanges along the development of the “sociotype” construct. It is a new approach developed by the authors within the genotype-phenotype-sociotype conceptual triad. The sociotype means the relative constancy, or better the similar fabric, of the social world in which each individual life is developed. In order to ascertain the metrics of the fundamental quantitative traits inherent in the sociotype, a fieldwork involving a total of 1475 individuals (68.59% female, and 49.79 mean age, SD = 21.47) was carried out. The four relational realms of family, friends, work/study, and acquaintances were investigated. The overall results about conversation time (an average of 220 min/day), and about the number of social bonds (an average of 98), differ from previous assumptions, such as Dunbar's number or Killworth's number. Other results about gender, age, and use of social media and Internet contribute to highlight significant differences among the different social segments, and particularly the diminished “sociotype” of the elderly. Finally, it is curious that a non-Gaussian distribution has been obtained for the specific population allotment of these metrics, and intriguingly the Planckian distribution equation (PDE) appears to be a most cogent fit. 000087689 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/FEDER/Una manera de hacer Europa$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/ISCIII/PI12-01480$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/CSO2017-82110-R 000087689 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000087689 590__ $$a1.808$$b2019 000087689 592__ $$a0.515$$b2019 000087689 591__ $$aMATHEMATICAL & COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY$$b30 / 59 = 0.508$$c2019$$dQ3$$eT2 000087689 593__ $$aApplied Mathematics$$c2019$$dQ2 000087689 591__ $$aBIOLOGY$$b55 / 93 = 0.591$$c2019$$dQ3$$eT2 000087689 593__ $$aBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (miscellaneous)$$c2019$$dQ2 000087689 593__ $$aMedicine (miscellaneous)$$c2019$$dQ2 000087689 593__ $$aModeling and Simulation$$c2019$$dQ2 000087689 593__ $$aStatistics and Probability$$c2019$$dQ3 000087689 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000087689 700__ $$adel Moral, R. 000087689 700__ $$aJi, S. 000087689 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-8261-058X$$aGil Lacruz, M.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000087689 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-2036-7817$$aGómez-Quintero, J.D.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000087689 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-6148-0667$$aNavarro, J.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000087689 7102_ $$14009$$2740$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
