We study the problem of detecting hierarchical ties in a social network by exploiting the interaction patterns between the actors (members) involved in the network. Motivated by earlier work using a rank-based approach, i.e., Rooted-PageRank, we introduce a novel timesensitive method, called T-RPR, that captures and exploits the dynamics and evolution of the interaction patterns in the network ...

the conceptualization of resilience as a general or multidimensional construct and recognizing the inhibitors and facilitators of it are the main issues in the resilience literature. therefore, the present study investigated the discriminant variables of educational resilient and emotional resilient groups in person-focused approach, to examine the general or multidimensional construct of resil...
