Longitudinal Social Network Studies and Predictive Social Cohesion Theory
The present proposal links researchers from different countries working on projects concerned with developing a new scientific theory of social cohesion using novel means of representation and analysis of large-scale network structures. The goal is a rigorous scientific theory of dynamic social evolution not in terms of stages but open ended networked social processes. Subprojects and their ori...
متن کاملCohesion and Roles: Network Analysis of CSCL Communities
We provide empirical support for the assertions that high level of knowledge construction is associated with structured design and that knowledge construction is associated with cohesion and equivalence network structures. We built and analyzed two CSCL communities one structured the other non-structured. The levels of learning processes were measured by content analysis. The social capital str...
متن کاملSix Degrees of Cohesion in Patent Citation Network
While the phrase “six degrees of separation” is widely used to characterize a variety of humanderived networks, in this study we show that in patent citation network, related patents are connected with an average distance of 6, whereas an average distance for a random pair of nodes in the graph is approximately 15. We use this information to improve the recall level in prior-art retrieval in th...
متن کاملNetwork, Popularity and Social Cohesion: A Game-Theoretic Approach
In studies of social dynamics, cohesion refers to a group’s tendency to stay in unity, which – as argued in sociometry – arises from the network topology of interpersonal ties between members of the group. We follow this idea and propose a game-based model of cohesion that not only relies on the social network, but also reflects individuals’ social needs. In particular, our model is a type of c...
متن کاملCohesion Metrics
We consider ways of measuring the cohesion of program fragments based upon techniques for program slicing, following the work of Ott et al 12, 2, 13, 11, 10]. The approach is based on the idea that the intersection of a program's slices represents that part of the fragment which is cohesive. We produce cohesion metrics that are structurally identical to those of Ott and Thuss 13], the diierence...
