    George H Conklin, George ConklinARTICLESacris Erudiri2022

    This article addresses the obscure years from 1145-1167 in the life of the renowned canonist, abbot, and bishop Stephen of Orléans-Tournai. In the first part, it reconstructs where and when he was in these so-called lost years.

It adduces that he witness…

    Open AccessGeorge H ConklinARTICLESocial Science Computer Review1988Cited by: 2References: 2

    Although the American Sociological Association is moving toward formalizing a microcomputer users' group, there is still a shortage of authors of software products for teaching substantive sociology that are not tied to a specific textbook. New approaches to integrating textbooks with computers, generic computer tools for teaching and research, and the use of computers in qualitative sociology are covered. The essay concludes with speculations ab…

  • The Family, Socio-Economic Development and Suicide: A 52 Nation Comparative Study

    George H Conklin, Miles E Simpson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Comparative Family…1987Cited by: 4

    Empirical studies of the family and suicide are few, while comparative studies of family structure and suicide are rare. Past cross-national comparative studies of suicide rates and family variables employ only a few independent variables and a limited number of countries. Using a sample as broadly comparative as possible, we examined Durkheim s theory of the family and suicide for 52 nations. Sixteen variables are analyzed. Family measures such …

  • Introductory Sociology's Role as a Service Course: The Place of Quantitative Methods

    George H Conklin, Isaac A Robinson et al.ARTICLETeaching Sociology1985Cited by: 1

    While social facts in the principles course would improve the level of the course for sociology majors, including quantitative methodology in the introductory course is also desired by other departments using sociology as a service course. We propose that principles courses ought to have a laboratory where students can see how data can aid in decision making and testing hypotheses. Recent developments in microcomputers make such a laboratory cost…

  • Family Modernization Values and Factory Employment: An Example from South India

    George H ConklinARTICLEJournal of Comparative Family…1977

    lnkeles and Smith have argued that factory employment is a highly effective agent of social change in developing areas of the world. They further find that urbanization by itself is not an effective agent of social change. From a sample of villagers, urban non-industrial residents and factory workers in Karnataka State, India, it was found that family modernization values among factory workers were identical to those found among urban nonindustri…

  • Using the Computer in Introductory Sociology: "A Solution to the "Methodology Problem

    George H ConklinARTICLETeaching Sociology1976Cited by: 1

    One of the recurring problems facing the instructor in introductory sociology courses is how to introduce students to the ways in which sociologists study the world around them. As Van Valey (1975) has pointed out, many introductory sociology texts either omit all references to methodology or give only minimal treatment to sociological techniques. In developing an innovative sociology course based on five teaching units and a mini-test following …
