Substantial research has investigated the impact of social support on development and course suicidal thoughts behaviors. However, its measurement been inconsistent, different facets may have differential effects ideation (SI). The present study used data from 743 veterans recruited between 2008 2010 as part Mind Your Heart Study to investigate relationship two aspects (social network size perc...

social capital is one of the most important criteria related to social network resilience. in trust networks as the most important factor of social capital in adaptive governance, sensitivity to disorders and irregularities is considerable and resiliency improvement and compatibility capacity depends on trust level in network. this research is applied in zangooi village, south khorasan province...

Research shows that perception of physical size and status are positively associated. The current study was developed to replicate and extend earlier research on height perceptions of political leaders, indicating that supporters perceive their leaders as taller than non-supporters do, and winners are perceived as taller after the elections, while losers are perceived as shorter after the elect...

Background. Averaged Norbeck Social Support Questionnaire (NSSQ) support scores remove the influence of network size variability but may unduly lower scores for participants with large networks. Objectives. To evaluate the use of averaged NSSQ scores. Method. Pearson correlations determined if averaged scores decreased as network size increased across three samples. Then, Pearson correlations b...

People learn language from their social environment. As individuals differ in their social networks, they might be exposed to input with different lexical distributions, and these might influence their linguistic representations and lexical choices. In this article we test the relation between linguistic performance and 3 social network properties that should influence input variability, namely...

The social brain hypothesis, an explanation for the unusually large brains of primates, posits that the size of social group typical of a species is directly related to the volume of its neocortex. To test whether this hypothesis also applies at the within-species level, we applied the Cavalieri method of stereology in conjunction with point counting on magnetic resonance images to determine th...

Past research has documented age differences in the size and composition of social networks that suggest that networks grow smaller with age and include an increasingly greater proportion of well-known social partners. According to socioemotional selectivity theory, such changes in social network composition serve an antecedent emotion regulatory function that supports an age-related increase i...

This study proposes a different angle to social network analysis that evaluates patent value and explores its influencing factors using the network centrality and network position. This study utilizes a logistic regression model to explore the relationships in the LED industry between patent value and network centrality as measured from out-degree centrality, in-degree centrality, in-closeness ...

In the present study, it has been investigated about the effect of the virtual network (Telegram) on the emotional divorce among the young couples. The research method was a social survey including 100 married persons who were members of Telegram. They were selected randomly among the students of University of Payam Noor in Babol, on the basis of Cochran's table. Surveying tool was a questionna...

This paper examines the dynamic implications of social networks for the labor market outcomes of political refugees resettled in the U.S. Using a theoretical model of job information transmission within social networks, the paper shows that the relationship between the size of a social network, the vintage of network members and labor market outcomes is non-monotonic. To test this prediction, I...
