Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Students complete a name-generator based network survey, calculate common measures of network properties and write a short paper analyzing their own personal networks/ego-networks. This assignment is used in the course Introduction to Social Network Analysis. Students have read about ego networks, ways of measuring their properties, and the factors that shape them. The assignment is divided into three steps. In the first step students complete an ego network survey, including 6 name generators, a number of name interpreters, and a density matrix. Next the students use a worksheet to guide them in calculating properties of their network such as size, density, homophily, diversity, and average tie strength. The worksheet has students calculate these measures separately for their entire network, their weak ties, and their strong ties. In the final step, students write a short paper in which they analyze their networks, examining what their overall personal network looks like and how their strong ties and weak ties differ. The formating of the survey is based on the formatting of surveys created by Keith Hampton, including a survey included in TRAILS resource #9796.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
