Generators or diffusers? Examining differences in the dynamic coupling of context and social ties across multiple types of foci
Feld’s focus theory is one of the most influential approaches in social network analysis. However, with very few exceptions, empirical assessments of the theory have only focused on a narrow range of its predictions premised on comparative statics. This paper restates classical focus theory in terms of dependence between multiple network layers as they co-evolve, yielding dynamic focus theory. Social foci serve as an ecology within which person-t…
A Longitudinal Study of Fitbit Usage Behavior Among College Students
Fitbit wearable devices provide users with objective data on their physical activity and sleep habits. However, little is known about how users develop their usage patterns and the key mechanisms underlying the development of such patterns. In this article, we report results from a longitudinal analysis of Fitbit usage behavior among a sample of college students. Survey and Fitbit data were collected from 692 undergraduates at the University of N…
The impact of social networks on sleep among a cohort of college students
Social networks can and do impact sleep, especially sleep quantity. In contexts where students want to have larger networks, the difficulties of increasing network size and maintaining larger networks negatively impact sleep. Because of peer influence, the effectiveness of interventions designed to improve sleep practices could be increased by leveraging student social networks to help diffuse better sleep habits
Predicting Homophily and Social Network Connectivity From Dyadic Behavioral Similarity Trajectory Clusters
The similarity between pairs of people is often measured on relatively static traits and at a given point in time. Moving beyond this approach, a burgeoning line of research is investigating temporal dyadic similarity on traits and behaviors, such as health activities. Our study contributes to this line of inquiry by using fine-grained longitudinal data obtained from sensors, mobile devices, and surveys to examine whether we can observe distinct …
Using big data to examine the effect of urbanism on social networks
Sociological theories suggest that urban life affects human sociability in negative ways. People in urban areas are expected to have fewer and weaker ties than those in rural areas. Rural areas should have proportionally more local ties, whereas urban areas have stronger nonlocal ties. We test these hypotheses using comprehensive large-scale data from a mobile phone company in Spain. We examine urban and rural differences in terms of the average …
Social Affiliation from Religious Disaffiliation: Evidence of Selective Mixing Among Youth with No Religious Preference During the Transition to College
The number of individuals claiming a nonreligious identity in the United States is on the rise, with one-fourth of the overall U.S. public failing to identify with any of the major religious traditions. In this article, we examine whether religious disaffiliation structures social network formation in a social context in which religious identification (and religiosity) is a salient cultural marker. We take advantage of unique data on the personal…
Algorithms for generating large-scale clustered random graphs
Real-world networks are often compared to random graphs to assess whether their topological structure could be a result of random processes. However, a simple random graph in large scale often lacks social structure beyond the dyadic level. As a result we need to generate clustered random graph to compare the local structure at higher network levels. In this paper a generalized version of Gleeson's algorithm G(V S , V T , E S , E T , S, T) is adv…
A dyadic reciprocity index for repeated interaction networks
A wide variety of networked systems in human societies are composed of repeated communications between actors. A dyadic relationship made up of repeated interactions may be reciprocal (both actors have the same probability of directing a communication attempt to the other) or non-reciprocal (one actor has a higher probability of initiating a communication attempt than the other). In this paper we propose a theoretically motivated index of recipro…

The Role of Information and Influence in Social Networks: Examining the Association Between Social Network Structure and Job Mobility
This article examines two mechanisms through which social networks are related to job mobility: (1) access to diverse sources of information about job openings and (2) nonredundant sources of influence. Using data on job changing and social networks among television station managers, we assess the extent to which job information and influence variables mediate the relationship between social network structure and getting a better job. Results ind…
Attachments, Grievances, Resources, and Efficacy: The Determinants of Tenant Association Participation among Public Housing Tenants
This study uses data from the Multi-City Study of Urban Inequality to examine variation in tenant association participation among public housing tenants in Boston and Los Angeles. Using logistic regression models we estimate the net effects of four sets of factors on the likelihood that a tenant has attended tenant association meetings: neighborhood attachments, grievances, resources and constraints, and feelings of efficacy. Results show that ne…

Industrial Characteristics and Job Mobility Rates
Allfirms operate in at least two markets. the product market and the labor market. I investigate the relationship between characteristics of these two markets by examining the effects of product market (industrial) characteristics on job mobility in labor markets. Informed by a theoretical model in which employer personnel strategies mediate the relationship between industrial characteristics and job mobility rates, hypotheses are formulated conc…
Three Models of Job Mobility in Labor Markets
This study examines job mobility patterns in the United States through the analysis of job mobility rates. Utilizing event history analysis and retrospective job history data, a variety of job mobility rates are modeled. Besides the overall rate of job exiting, this study also examines rates of voluntary and involuntary exits, within- and between-employer moves, and upward job shifts. Informed by three theoretical models of job mobility-the rewar…

The Competing Risks Model: A Method for Analyzing Processes with Multiple Types of Events
Social scientists are often interested in modeling processes with multiple types of events. One frequently used model-the competing risk model-provides a method for analyzing the rates of different event types. This article addresses two important issues concerning the competing risks model. First, under what conditions is this model appropriate? Second, how should one interpret estimated parameters? Guidelines for answering these questions are p…
Gender differences in job mobility rates in the united states
This research examines gender differences in job mobility rates, especially rates of movement into supervisory and managerial positions. Informed by human capital and segmentation theory, hypotheses concerning the effects of labor force withdrawals and gender-based occupational segregation on mobility are investigated. Using job history data and event history analysis a series of models of both voluntary moves and upward authority moves are speci…

The American Class Structure
This paper presents the first systematic investigation of the American class structure based on data gatheredfrom an explicitly Marxian, relational perspective. Classes in this research are not defined in terms of categories of occupations, but in terms of social relations of control over investments, decision making, other people's work, and one's own work. Data on these dimensions of social relations of production were gathered in a national su…
