The Advanced Social Networks PDW will allow researchers who
are currently engaged in social network research, or who have
specific plans to incorporate social network concepts into
existing streams of research, to interact with one another. The
goal of the PDW is to facilitate interaction among researchers
engaged in network research. We are especially hopeful that
cross level interactions will occur, in keeping with the
inherently multilevel nature of social network analysis.
Discussion leaders will provide introductory comments to the
group of PDW participants. Each discussant will present her or
his thoughts on the most promising social network concepts
likely to emerge in the next few years. These ideas will be
actionable and relevant to participants, and discussants will be
allowed to comment on one anothers’ thoughts. After the
introductory presentations, participants will break out into
discussion groups organized around topics of interest. Topics
will be determined by discussion leaders’ and participants'
joint research interests,expressed when they register.
Discussion groups will provide general reports to the whole
group in a concluding session, allowing for another round of
feedback, and providing participants one last opportunity to see
the kinds of research ideas that are amenable to network
analysis. Finally, to facilitate cross level research projects,
a network of individuals x research interests will be generated
and disseminated to participants.
Advanced registration is required. To
register, please visit
https://secure.aomonline.org/PDWReg. The deadline to
register is July 11, 2008. Please also email a brief description
(50 words or less) of research interests specific to network
analysis along with your preference of the top five discussants
you would like to sit in on to Heather Dixon-Fowler,
HDixon-fowler@walton.uark.edu.
NOTE: This is an advanced social networks PDW, intended to allow
researchers who are currently engaged in social network research
to interact with one another. If you are not currently involved
in social network research, please look into the Introduction to
Social Networks Research PDW. |
