Quantitative and numerical Formal language Indices / metrics Visualisation A range of phenomena (e.g…) Methodological Overview

Social interactions are structured; structure (i.e. the social climate) determines the nature of the parts the perceptions, behaviour, and the limitations and opportunities for action Concern for structure of informal relations/groupings as opposed to formal roles (i.e. micro-foundational) Relations which the individuals themselves recognise Mechanisms by which social aggregates are sustained and transformed over time To identify leaders, isolated individuals, sub-groups etc. SNA Background

Systematic interdependence between the attitudes held by different individuals within a group (Scott, 1991) Leading to cohesion, social pressure, cooperation, solidarity Existence of ‘cliques’ “placing people in society” Role played by conflict and power Combination of graph theory and sociological framework Suggests SNA meets “a need for appropriate concepts to use in understanding complex societies” Findings

Graph Theory and SNA Graph / network theory A graph G(V,E) consists of a set of vertices V representing individuals or objects and a set of edges E representing relationships between the individuals or objects Directed and undirected graphs, valued graphs Degree, indegree, outdegree Density, connectedness, subgraphs Average path length, cliquishness, clustering Centrality, periphery More basic concepts from Analytic Technologies
