It shows how social processes can be modeled accurately through analyzing time series data—specifically, a temporal sequence of process outcomes that is dense enough in observation time to support appropriate techniques of modeling the outcome sequence. The book illustrates techniques using minimal mathematical formalism which is explained also in careful narrative descriptions of the model logic.SociologyMethodologyAnthropologyResearchMathematicsData processingSocial sciencesStatistical methodsSociological MethodsResearch Methods in AnthropologyComputational Mathematics and Numerical AnalysisStatistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public PolicySociologyMethodology.AnthropologyResearch.MathematicsData processing.Social sciencesStatistical methods.Sociological Methods.Research Methods in Anthropology.Computational Mathematics and Numerical Analysis.Statistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public Policy.301.01Hazelrigg Lawrenceauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut494234MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910988286603321Modeling Social Processes of Aggregation4348714UNINA
