About this event

Social Sciences PGR Training: Mixed Methods Research

Social media research series: Social network analysis on social media platforms

Network graphs are among the most common forms of online data visualisation, especially in studies looking at user interactions or topical dimensions of public conversations. This session will introduce Social Network Analysis, a technique that has been employed by social scientists for a long time but has suddenly come to the fore in the past few years with the emergence of social media research.

During the workshop, we will practice network visualisation techniques of Twitter data with Gephi (https://gephi.org)

Tutor: Dr Stefania Vicari (Department of Sociological Studies)

This session is open to PGR Students at White Rose Social Sciences Doctoral Training Partnership (WRDTP) institutions only.
