Course : Statistical analyses in Social Research II: Big data analysis

This workshop provides a broad overview of Social Network Analysis. In the first part of the workshop, a concise overview of theoretical concepts is provided, together with examples of data collection methods. The second section discusses network data analysis - network measurements (i.e. density, reciprocity, etc.) and node level measurements (i.e. degree centrality, betweenness centrality, etc.). The last part of the workshop introduces participants to UCINET and NetDraw, software packages used for data management, analysis and visualization.
