Permutations | A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. | Page 2

https://permut.wordpress.com/page/2

A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. Neal Caren is on github, replication in social science! December 11, 2012. I’m passionate about open-source science, so I had to give Big Ups to Neal Caren who I just learned is sharing code on github. His latest offering essentially replicates the Mark Regnerus study of children whose parents had same-sex relationships. The writeup of this exercise is at Scatterplot. My previous posts on github and sharing code are here. October 23, 2012.

A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. Which R packages are good for what social network analysis? Newbies to social network analysis in R should check out this great concise description from Michal Bojanowski on the SOCNET email list. He writes:.

Fool’s Gold and Organizational Inertia. Daniel Beunza at Socializing Finance. Links to Donald MacKenzie’s LRB review. June 10, 2009 at 5:43 pm. R, Stata and descriptive stats. It’s amazing how R can make complicated things look simple and simple things look complicated. I tried to explain in my previous post. Tabstat y, by(group) stats(N mean p10 median p90). Could be translated into R as:. Or, for a more concise version:. That’s quite ugly compared to the simple tabstat command, but I could deal w...

a case for single-blind review | Permutations

https://permut.wordpress.com/2013/01/23/a-case-for-single-blind-review

A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. A case for single-blind review. Cross posted from here. So, let’s start with a case for single blind review. I think think there are quite a few merits to single blind review (for a few other takes, see here. I won’t presume to cover them all here, but i will get a start. Feel free to add others, or tell me i’m completely off my rocker in the comments. For now a final point that i saw elsewhere on the web this morning, but have definitel...

A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. My Old Book Review of Six Degrees. I wrote a review of Duncan Watts book on social networks, for a class and thought I might as well share it here, even if it is a little out of date:. Networks are everywhere. In the first chapter of Six Degrees. In the second half he presents a network perspective for a wide range of topics such as…. Speculation, social decision making, and organizations. His early collaborators were mathematicians, phy...

Statistical Teaching (bleg) | Permutations

https://permut.wordpress.com/2012/11/20/statistical-teaching-bleg

A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. I have plenty of “standard” examples i could draw from, but they’re likely bored with the one’s i think of first by this point in the term. So, what are yours? It’s fine if you just have the numbers, i can convert them to visualizations, but if you have visual pointers, all the better.

A place to discuss mathematics, sociology, and their intersections. Moderately tweaked excerpt from here. How hard would it be to get ALL of the first round games in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament wrong? I mean, that would be pretty tough, right? Given that among the multiple millions of brackets submitted to ESPN this year,. Got all the first round games right, it would seem hard to do the inverse too, right? I think we’re going to have to put this to the test. Something like -1 point fo...8230;] ...
