Advanced Networks PDW at AOM 2014

  • 1.  Advanced Networks PDW at AOM 2014

    Social networks is a field of study that focuses on social relations among a set of actors-people, teams, and organizations-rather than focusing exclusively on the attributes of the actors. Network researchers have developed a set of distinctive theoretical perspectives and methodological techniques for collecting data, statistical analysis, and visual representation.

    Those wishing to expand their understanding of social network analysis and receive direct feedback from experienced network scholars on a research project, should make plans to attend the following PDW at this year's AOM conference.

    Advanced Networks PDW

    Includes presentations of cutting-edge social network research, an ERGM workshop, and small group discussions with experienced network scholars

    2:00pm-5:00pm Saturday, August 2nd

    • Presented by the LINKS Center for Social Network Analysis at the University of Kentucky.
    • Sponsored by the Organization and Management Theory Division (OMT).

    The detailed schedule follows. Please note that this workshop requires pre-registration. Please register online at http://aom.org/annualmeeting/registration/PDW. Please contact Tejas Channagiri at tejaswi.channagiri@uky.edu to obtain the approval code.

    Approximately the first hour and half will consist of presentations in cutting-edge social network research following which participants will break into two groups.
