We present two generalizations of its sex-oriented version, aiming to take into account correlations between the preferences of agents and costly information. Their effects are investigated both numerically and analytically. %I Elsevier %A Guido Caldarelli %A Andrea Capocci %A Paolo Laureti %D 2001 %V 299 %N 1-2
