In the structural-balance limit the signs of Heider relations are exactly the products of nearest-neighbor Ising spins, so the balanced Heider model with external field is equivalent to the field-free Ising model.

Relationship between Heider links and Ising spins
In the structural-balance limit the signs of Heider relations are exactly the products of nearest-neighbor Ising spins, so the balanced Heider model with external field is equivalent to the field-free Ising model.
