    Abstract

    We extend the classic Bass diffusion model to address the case in which existing adopters could depress the growth of adoption, i.e. the diffusion process is self-restraining. Two modified Bass models are proposed according to whether the negative depressive effect is exerted on potential adopters or existing adopters. We then characterize the diffusion paths for several generalizations.
