:Noah E. Friedkin, in 'A Structural Theory of Social Influence,' develops a formal theoretical approach to influence as a network process. The data in the study come from an investigation of the structure of collegial interaction within biological, physical, and social science faculties at ...

This theory describes social impact in terms of social force fields that impinge upon us, pushing us to think or behave in a particular way. These social forces have been equated to physical forces that govern the transmissionof light, sound, gravity, magnetism, etc. For example, the amount ...
behavior. The main thesis is that hazards interact with psychological, social, institutional, and cultural processes in ways that may amplify or attenuate public responses to the risk or risk event. A structural description of the social amplification of risk is now possible. Amplification occurs at...
Developed an index from the assumption that the potential influence of persons in a group can be represented by the number of connections that they have to the task system. Using structural role theory, these connections were derived from both the formal and informal structure of the group. A ...
Fig. 1: Traits within social ecological systems. Theoretical flow chart linking the entities of a social-ecological system to its traits, demonstrating how a traits framework—as outlined in this article—might be positioned to support the analysis, interpretation and governance of urban systems. ...
Moreover, the current study pursues to assess the moderation effect of information sharing in the association between social network ties and PEM. Using the survey approach, we recruited teachers from government schools. The proposed model and relationships were validated through structural equation ...
We develop a theoretical framework based on the theory of structural holes, strength of weak tie theory and the social influence model for understanding how individuals in knowledge-intensive work use ICT for task and communication purposes. The framework is guided by the question that if the socia...
A system of interconnected buyers and suppliers is better modeled as a network than as a linear chain. In this paper we demonstrate how to use social network analysis to investigate the structural characteristics of supply networks. Our theoretical framework relates key social network analysis metrics...
to cope with the possibility of multiple interests. This may lead to an interesting analysis of the competitive structural advantage of nodes with a diversified audience. The model can also be adapted to a growing network formation model, in which users join at different times, which will allow...
