Didactic Seminar. Social Network Analysis (cosponsored by the ICPSR and the ASA Section onMethodology)Marriott Wardman Park, HardingFriday, August 11, 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.Ticket required for admissionLeaders: Stanley Wasserman, University of Illinois, UrbanaKatherine Faust, University of South CarolinaThis seminar will present an introduction to concepts, methods, andapplications of social network analysis in the social and behavioralsciences. Social network analysis focuses on relationships betweensocial entities and is widely used in the social and behavioral sciences aswell as in economics, marketing, organizational behavior, and industrialengineering. This focus on relationships requires a special set ofmethods distinct from the usual statistics and data analysis techniquesused to analyze the standard "cases by variables" data.We will begin with the basic concepts and principles of socialnetwork analysis, including the elements of the social network paradigmand formal representations for social networks (graph theory andmatrices). We will then discuss structural and locational properties ofactors in social networks: centrality, prestige, and prominence; cohesivesubgroups and cliques; equivalence of actors, including structuralequivalence and block models; an introduction to local analysis includingdyadic and triadic analyses; and basic distribution theory and statisticalmodels.The course text will be Social Network Analysis: Methods andApplications (Cambridge, ENG and New York: Cambridge UniversityPress, 1994) by Stanley Wasserman and Katherine Faust. We will focuson chapters 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 13, and 15 from this book. We recommendthat seminar attendees obtain this book in advance and read the first fewchapters prior to the session.2000 ASA Chair Conference (preregistration required)—Friday, August 11, 12:30-9:30 p.m.—Marriott WardmanPark, Balcony CD2. Didactic Seminar. So You Want to Do Applied PolicyResearch?Howard University (shuttle departs from the Marriott)Friday, August 11, 1:00-6:00 p.m.Ticket required for admissionLeaders: Roberta Spalter-Roth, American SociologicalAssociationBeatrice Edwards, Public Services InternationalThis seminar is designed for those thinking of careers as appliedpolicy researchers (including advocacy research) and those teachingcourses in this area. In this overview, we introduce the following topicareas: approaches to applied policy research from "purple prose" tocost-benefit analysis; gaining credibility for different types of research;frequently used procedures and techniques, including types of researchused at different stages of the policy process; developing quantitativeand qualitative evidence (the "number" and the "victim"); policy analysisand writing; and the ethics of applied research. Two hands-on activitieswill illustrate the evidence gathering, the analysis, and the writingaspects of policy research. First, participants will work in groups tochoose a policy issue (including standardized testing, contingent work,welfare reform, or privatization of public services), conduct an Internetsearch for relevant data, and analyze their findings. Second,participants will turn their findings into a piece of policy writingappropriate to a specific policy forum.3. Professional Workshop. How to Navigate CongressMarriott Wardman Park, CoolidgeFriday, August 11, 1:00-5:00 p.m.Ticket required for admissionLeader: Rachel Gragg, Legislative Assistant, Office ofSenator Paul D. Wellstone, United States SenateThis professional workshop on will tell you all you ever wanted toknow about how to approach members of Congress and their staffmembers on the Hill. This workshop will examine the best ways for socialscientists to participate in all stages of the legislative process. If you areaiming to talk about your research, address an importance issue ofscience policy, "educate" about enhanced support for the socialsciences, or otherwise get your "message" across in informal meetingsor testimony, this workshop is for you. How should you go about settingup a meeting, what should you bring, what is the most effective mode ofwriting, should you prepare an opening statement for an office visit, howinformal can you be, how do you best anticipate questions, and howmuch time can you expect are just some of the questions that are "fairgame" in this session. The workshop will provide information andmaterials that will help prepare you for meetings and presentations. Bringyour questions, though. No question is too foolish in dealing with politicsand navigating Congress.
