Log-linear distance models of homophily in small groups
This article demonstrates the innovative use of the log-linear distance model in the assessment of homophily in a set of small groups, such as the co-participants in a set of events. It traces the development of the application of the log-linear distance model to the study of homophily and reviews its recent use to assess the extent and structure of gender and age homophily in groups of criminal accomplices ('co-offenders'). The transformations o…

Co-offending in Canada, England and the United States
This article compares the characteristics of police-reported co-offending groups and solo offenders in Canada, England and the United States. Comparative analysis of crime in these three countries is fostered by the relative similarity of their substantive criminal codes (all originating in English common law), their approaches to law enforcement, and their crime recording procedures. The data include over 100,000 incidents cleared by a large UK …
Models and Methods in Social Network Analysis
Missing persons and social exclusion
The concept of social exclusion is used to explore the relationship between people and groups who are socially and economically disadvantaged and the phenomenon of going missing. Police data about missing persons are compared to census data to determine whether groups who experience family dissolution, labour market exclusion, and other forms of disadvantage and social exclusion are overrepresented among missing persons compared to the general po…
Co‐offending and the Development of the Delinquent Career
This article examines the role of co‐offending in the development of the delinquent career. Hypotheses derived from Reiss's (1986, 1988) taxonomic theory of co‐offending are tested, using police‐reported data on the delinquent careers and co‐offending of 55,336 Canadian offenders. Support is found for a taxonomic theory and for age‐related and functional theories of co‐offending. The taxonomy consists of two types of offenders—high activity (3 pe…
Estimation of Offending and Co-offending Using Available Data with Model Support
Police data under-report the numbers of crimes and of offenders, the numbers of offenders participating in individual criminal incidents (incident sizes) and the numbers of incidents in which individual offenders participate (offender activity). Criminal participation in incidents is a concept that underlies and unifies all of these phenomena, so that the numbers of incidents and of offenders, and incident size distributions and offender activity…

Report on the New Oxford English Dictionary User Survey
As part of their plan to computerize the Oxford English Dictionary, the Oxford University Press and the University of Waterloo undertook a user survey. The objective of the survey was to establish how respondents now use the Dictionary, to determine the principal facilities that users will require of an electronic version of the OEDand to provoke thoughtful responses about applications for the New OED. The survey was, in many respects, a necessar…

Cobloc
A method is described for finding blockmodels of a given network using an agglomerative hierarchical clustering technique with optional backtrack capabilities. The clustering criterion is an index of the goodness of fit of the blockmodel that would be produced by a given clustering. This index is computed for each clustering considered. This method is compared on a priori grounds with other methods and comparative results are reported for its app…
