The Structural Weight of Social Identity: Evolution of Informal Credit Networks in SAT India, 2007–2013
Local social boundaries shape everyday economic exchange in rural India, yet it remains unclear whether these boundaries weaken or reconfigure as markets and outside options expand. This paper studies how informal credit networks reorganise over time in a semi-arid village economy, focusing on locally recognised social groups (Hindu jatis and religious minorities). Using complete household-census network data from Kanzara (Maharashtra) collected …
An Exploratory Review of Regional Perspectives on Social Capital and Occupational Studies
Social capital is one of the most influential yet fragmented concepts in the social sciences. To gain insight into its substantive use within specific domains, this review explores how social capital (SC) has been applied in occupational studies, with particular attention to regional perspectives. Building on Adams and Fitch’s bibliometric mapping, it applies abstract-based topic modeling with citation data to identify thematic clusters and theor…
Fault Lines” and Substitution in the Family Network: Contact Between Children, Mothers, Fathers, and Maternal and Paternal Grandparents in Divorced and Non‐Divorced Families
Although the consequences of parental divorce for specific family relationships are increasingly studied, its impact on the broader family network, including relationships with and between parents, children, and grandparents, remains unexplored. This study aims to unravel how three‐generational, bilateral contact patterns manifest in the larger family network and how they differ when families experience parental divorce. 4,411 families from the m…
Considering the ‘With Whom’: Differences Between Event- and Signal-Contingent ESM Data of Person-Specific Social Interactions
Experience sampling studies often aim to capture social interactions. A central methodological question in such studies is whether to use event- or signal-contingent sampling. The little existing research on this issue has not taken into account that social interactions occur with unique interaction partners (e.g., Anna or Tom). We analyze one week of social interaction data of 286 students from the University of Pittsburgh (60.8% male, mean age …
How do victims of bullying develop depression? Testing interpersonal style to explain the victimization‐depression link
This study tested to what extent the relation between bullying victimization and future symptoms of depression could be explained by victims being more hostile and less assertive than non-involved individuals. Data came from waves 2-4 of the Dutch TRacking Adolescents' Individual Lives Survey (TRAILS). Participants' bullying experiences were assessed at age 13, interpersonal style at age 16, and depression symptoms at age 19. Mediation analyses w…
The relation between defending, (dis)liking, and the classroom bullying norm: A cross-sectional social network approach in late childhood
This study investigates the extent to which defending victims of bullying depends on liking and disliking and its relation with the classroom bullying norm (descriptive and popularity) in a sample of 1,272 students (50.8% boys) in 48 fifth-grade classrooms. Social network analysis with bivariate exponential random graph modelings showed that children are more likely to defend victims whom they like, who like them, and who are liked by the same cl…
Stability and change in student classroom composition and its impact on peer victimization
Although peer victimization in school mainly takes place between children in the same classroom or grade and bullying is generally seen as a group process, little is known about how stability and change in classroom composition affect peer victimization. Hence, this study addressed the following questions: (a) Are newcomers in the classroom more likely to become victims? (b) Does a stable classroom, where children generally have the same classmat…
Statistical Power in Longitudinal Network Studies
Longitudinal social network studies can easily suffer from insufficient statistical power. Studies that simultaneously investigate change of network ties and change of nodal attributes (selection and influence studies) are particularly at risk because the number of nodal observations is typically much lower than the number of observed tie variables. This article presents a simulation-based procedure to evaluate statistical power of longitudinal s…
Peer victimization in single‐grade and multigrade classrooms
Although peer victimization mainly takes place within classrooms, little is known about the impact of the classroom context. To this end, we examined whether single‐grade and multigrade classrooms (referring to classrooms with one and two grades in the same room) differ in victim–bully relationships in a sample of elementary school children (646 students; age 8–12 years; 50% boys). The occurrence of victim–bully relationships was similar in singl…
Self, peer, and teacher reports of victim‐aggressor networks in kindergartens
This study investigated if and how children and teachers differ in their assessment of victim-aggressor relationships in kindergartens. Self-, peer, and teacher reports of victimization-aggression networks (who is victimized by whom) were investigated in 25 Swiss kindergartens with 402 5- to 7-years-old. It was examined whether child characteristics (sex and parent-reported internalizing and externalizing behavior) influence informant reports of …
Setting a Good Example? The Effect of Leader and Peer Behavior on Corruption among Indonesian Senior Civil Servants
Standard anticorruption interventions consist of intensified monitoring and sanctioning. Rooted in principal‐agent theory, these interventions are based on the assumption that corrupt acts follow a rational cost‐benefit calculation by gain‐seeking individuals. Given their mixed results, however, these interventions require closer scrutiny. Building on goal‐framing theory, the authors argue that rule compliance requires a salient normative goal fr…
No Longer Discrete: Modeling the Dynamics of Social Networks and Continuous Behavior
The dynamics of individual behavior are related to the dynamics of the social structures in which individuals are embedded. This implies that in order to study social mechanisms such as social selection or peer influence, we need to model the evolution of social networks and the attributes of network actors as interdependent processes. The stochastic actor-oriented model is a statistical approach to study network-attribute coevolution based on lo…
Balance in Family Triads: How Intergenerational Relationships Affect the Adult Sibling Relationship
In order to understand the interdependency between intergenerational and adult sibling relationships, a family systems perspective is applied to identify a smaller-empirically analyzable-relational unit of analysis, that is, the sibling-parent-sibling triad. Using balance theory, triadic configurations are derived that represent enhancement, compensation, and loyalty conflicts. The hypotheses are tested for three relational dimensions: support ex…
The Choices and Constraints of Secondary Singles: Willingness to Stepparent Among Divorced Online Daters Across Europe
Using a large-scale sample of online daters in eight European countries ( N = 196,777), we examine willingness to stepparent among divorcees in relation to both gender and number of children, as well as a set of contextual determinants. We find evidence that having one’s own resident children increases the readiness to partner someone with children. Contrary to previous findings, women are generally less willing to stepparent than men, but when r…

Expatriate adjustment: The role of justice and conflict in intimate relationships
Framing expatriation as family relocation, this research examines the influence of perceived justice and conflict on the psychological adjustment of 103 expatriate couples. Based on the actor–partner interdependence model, the proposed model simultaneously addresses effects of justice and conflict on own and partner's outcomes. Supporting the current model, and based on the self‐interest model, distributive justice influenced work‐related task co…
War Stress and Late-Life Mortality in World War II Male Civilian Resistance Veterans
The mental and physical health of 146 Dutch males exposed to severe war stress during their young adulthood were examined in 1986-1987 when they were at ages 61 to 66 years. The veterans' data were compared with a randomly selected population-based sample of same-aged males. In 2005, 70% of the war stress veterans had died, and only 35% of the comparison group. The baseline quality of life was significantly poorer in the war stress veterans than …
A 'special attachment: Voice and the relational aspect of loyalty
Extending Hirschman's 'Exit-Voice-Loyalty' framework, the authors distinguish between attitudinal and relational aspects of loyalty. They hypothesize that co-workers' support for voice will moderate the effect of relational, but not attitudinal loyalty on voice. In line with the study's hypotheses, multilevel analyses of survey data on 204 voice actions (concerning three issues) of 121 employees in a Dutch public sector organization showed that t…
Ethnic segregation in context: Social discrimination among native Dutch pupils and their ethnic minority classmates
A framework for the comparison of maximum pseudo-likelihood and maximum likelihood estimation of exponential family random graph models
Ethnic Boundaries in High School Students' Networks in Flanders and the Netherlands
Ethnic boundaries were tested in students' networks in 34 Flemish and 19 Dutch high schools. Each network consisted of a school cohort in an intermediate level of education (track). While students from the native majority predominantly had friendships within their own ethnic category, minority students often had more inter-ethnic than intra-ethnic friendships. However, a multilevel p2 model for analysing the networks showed that this was due main…
Ethnic boundaries and personal choice. Assessing the influence of individual inclinations to choose intra-ethnic relationships on pupils’ networks
Evolution of sociology freshmen into a friendship network
In this paper we both describe and analyze the meeting process and the evolution of a friendship network among sociology freshmen in the Netherlands. We develop a theory that explains how changes in the network structure depend on one or more of four main effects: proximity, visible similarity, invisible similarity, and network opportunity. We formulate expectations with regard to what factors are important at what stages of the friendship develo…

Lonely but Not Alone: Emotional Isolation and Social Isolation as Two Distinct Dimensions of Loneliness in Older People
The unidimensional nature of the De Jong-Gierveld Loneliness Scale is investigated. The internal properties of the scale scores were studied using item response theory, supplemented by an external validity study. In line with the theory of relational loneliness, the results stress the significance of distinguishing between emotional loneliness and social loneliness
Patterns of Adjustment to Partner Loss in Old Age: The Widowhood Adaptation Longitudinal Study
The present longitudinal study aims to explain emotional and social loneliness experienced by older adults ( N=99) during two-and-a-half years of widowhood. Utilization of multilevel analysis and a “visual” cluster analysis with prescribed classification criteria enabled us to search for average adaptational developments as well as individual variability in the adjustment process. Results were interpreted within the theory of mental incongruity. …
