The relationship between the height of the epidemic peak (i.e. maximum simultaneous number of symptomatic [I2] individuals) and strength of the Awareness Effect (unitless; the extent to which individuals become more concerned for each symptomatic network neighbour they have; see Supplementary Material) when Social Construction is weak (< 0.3). We show the relationship when Awareness is acquired through the communication layer (grey) and the infection layer when 100% (blue), 50% (yellow), 20% (orange) and 5% (red) of symptomatic contacts are detected each day. Boxes indicate the interquartile range, the bold horizontal line the median and the whiskers extend to the full range of the data
