Sampling Effects in Social Network Analysis
Six Degrees of 'Who Cares
The concept that we live in small world networks connected by short paths has proved fascinating. These networks, however, do not typically emerge as linear responses to individual‐level changes; rather, subtle changes in relations produce extraordinarily different macrolevel outcomes. Similarly, nuances in how we conceptualize, define, and measure relations can lead to widely different network characterizations. The author demonstrates this vari…
From the Ground Up
Where do neighborhoods come from and why do certain resources and effects--such as social capital and collective efficacy--bundle together in some neighborhoods and not in others? From the Ground Up argues that neighborhood communities emerge from neighbor networks, and shows that these social relations are unique because of particular geographic qualities. Highlighting the linked importance of geography and children to the emergence of neighborh…
Paths and Semipaths
In a groundbreaking article, Moody and White (2003) introduced the concept of structural cohesion, simultaneously characterizing emergent communities and their internally embedded layers by the number of node-independent paths interconnecting individuals. Like many studies, however, they “corrected” the directionality discovered in some of their data. While often done for important purposes, doing so potentially confounds structural cohesion with…
Working Connections
Leadership is not a unitary phenomenon. While many variations are possible, leadership comes in at least two forms: Emergent leaders who represent those whom they lead and imposed leaders who do not derive their authority from those they lead. This is especially true of the workplace. Management leaders, while often selected from among workers, are imposed on them from above; in contrast, union leadership claims to emerge from and to represent th…

T‐Communities
In this article, I build on Grannis' (1998) analysis and examine the entire metropolitan regions of the three most populous U.S. Primary Metropolitan Statistical Areas (PMSAs). I find that t‐communities, communities defined by their internal access via pedestrian streets, powerfully account for the racial patterning of households in all three metropolitan areas. Racial variation occurs between t‐communities not within them, even when both distanc…

The Importance of Trivial Streets
Previous models of urban residential segregation have virtually ignored the affects of tertiary, or small, residential–type streets, despite the intuition that they are where “neighborly” relations primarily occur. This article argues that racial similarity among neighborhoods emerges primarily from their relational connections via tertiary streets rather than as a result of geographic proximity. Analyzing tertiary streets can better predict raci…
