Titre : Advanced Research Methods for the Social and Behavioral Sciences Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John E Edlund, Éditeur scientifique ; Austin Lee Nichols, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2019 Importance : 374 p Format : 27 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-44191-9 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Written by an interdisciplinary team of global experts covering diverse research methods - including research design, research tools, and statistical techniques - this volume focuses on advanced research methods for anyone working in the social and behavioral sciences. The information needed to perform research in the laboratory, the field, or online is mapped out to provide specific applications and tools in applying each method. The issues surrounding reliability, validity, and obtaining consent are explained alongside detailed descriptions of the impact of pre-knowledge on participant behavior, the ways that researchers unintentionally influence participants, and tips on administering suspicion probes and debriefings. The book then lays out bio-physiological measures, eye-tracking methods and technologies, the construction of questionnaires, and reaction-time methodologies without assuming too much prior knowledge. The basics of Bayesian analysis, item response analysis, social network analysis, and meta-analysis are also summarised as the editors combine innovative methods and statistics to showcase how to perform quality research.

Titre : Ageing and Health : The Politics of Better Policies Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Scott L Greer, Auteur ; Julia Lynch, Auteur ; Other authors, Auteur Editeur : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2021 Importance : 167 ح Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-97287-1 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : One of the most important political and economic challenges facing Europe and elsewhere is the ageing of societies. Must ageing populations create conflict between generations and crisis for health systems? Our answer is no. The problem is not so much demographic change as the political and policy challenge of creating fair, sustainable and effective policies for people of all ages. This book, based on a large European Observatory study, uses new evidence to challenge some of the myths surrounding ageing and its effects on economies and health systems. Cataclysmic views of population ageing are often based on stereotypes and anecdotes unsupported by evidence. How we address ageing societies is a choice. Societies can choose policies that benefit people of all ages, promoting equity both within and between generations, and political coalitions can be built to support such policies. This title is available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Titre : Agent-Based Models of Polarization and Ethnocentrism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michael Laver, Auteur Editeur : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2020 Collection : Elements in Quantitative and Computational Methods for the Social Sciences Importance : 85 p Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-79640-8 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Building on the Cambridge Element Agent Based Models of Social Life: Fundamentals (Cambridge, 2020), we move on to the next level. We do this by building agent based models of polarization and ethnocentrism. In the process, we develop: stochastic models, which add a crucial element of uncertainty to human interaction; models of human interactions structured by social networks; and 'evolutionary' models in which agents using more effective decision rules are more likely to survive and prosper than others. The aim is to leave readers with an effective toolkit for building, running and analyzing agent based modes of social interaction.
