Fertility trends across migrant generations reexamined: Insights from Finnish register data
Migrant descendants in several European countries show increasingly lower fertility rates, sometimes even lower than native-born peers—a pattern defying conventional expectations that migrant descendants either maintain origin-country patterns or converge toward host-country norms. Using Finnish register data (1985–1994 birth cohorts), we analyze first-birth timing across six ancestry groups spanning three migrant generations: 1.5, second, and 2.…
Gender Bias in Medieval Inquisitions and its Place in Shaping Knowledge about the Heterodox
This study examines gender bias in the investigative work of medieval inquisitors, focusing on Albert of Castellario’s trial of the Waldensians in Giaveno, Italy, in 1335. Drawing upon advancements in sociological and criminological literature, we conceptualize an inquisitorial trial as a discretionary information-gathering endeavor contingent upon the inquisitor’s judgment in deciding which leads to pursue. Employing social network analysis and …
Endogenous dynamics of denunciation: Evidence from an inquisitorial trial
We develop an endogenous approach to the practice of denunciation, as an alternative to exogenous historical and sociological accounts. It analyzes denunciation as a response to increasing pressure, which in turn increases pressure on social contacts. The research context is the trial of Waldensians in Giaveno, Italy, in 1335, headed by the inquisitor Alberto de Castellario. A dynamic network actor model attests that coercive pressure not only ra…
Revising the Borgatti-Everett core-periphery model: Inter-categorical density blocks and partially connected cores
Borgatti and Everett's model (2000) remains the prevailing standard for identifying categorical core-periphery structures in empirical networks, yet this method poses two significant issues. The first concerns the handling of inter-categorical ties-those linking core and periphery actors. The second problem is the model's definition of the ideal core as a complete block or clique, which can be overly stringent in practical applications. Building …
Workplace gossip and the evolution of friendship relations: The role of complex contagion
Gossip is a pervasive phenomenon in organizations causing many individuals to have second-hand information about their colleagues. However, whether it is used to inform friendship choices (i.e., friendship creation, friendship maintenance, friendship discontinuation) is not that evident. This paper articulates and empirically tests a complex contagion model to explain how gossip, through its reputational effects, can affect the evolution of frien…
More than one's negative ties: The role of friends' antipathies in high school gossip
Gossip is universal, and multiple studies have demonstrated that it can have beneficial group-level outcomes when negative reports help identify defectors or norm-violators. Gossip, however, seldom happens in a social vacuum. Instead, it is enmeshed in a fabric of positive and negative relationships that creates opportunities, constraints, and also motives to gossip. This article studies the importance of friendships and antipathies among the thr…
Antecedents & Consequences of Gossip: A Social Network Approach
Gossip constitutes a form of human communication consisting of the transmission of evaluative information about absent others.Previous research has associated the usage of gossip with outcomes at both the individual and the group levels.Such outcomes include, among other things, the delimitation of group boundaries, the ostracism of wrong-doers, effects on job performance, or feelings of social inclusion.Despite all this, there are conflicting vi…
