Last Friday I had a great time presenting on work constructing synthetic cohorts and using linked administrative data using the UKHLS.

As of yesterday, I have officially passed my Viva! Very surreal that the PhD journey has come to an end.

I've finally been able to set up a Jupyter Notebook that can use Stata, R, Python, and Mplus all at the same time. The base Python kernel means that for Mplus to run, it has to run the Mplusautomation package through R which is then run through Python. The time delay is surprisingly fine so far!

As of a few days ago I have officially (officially, officially thanks admin) submitted my PhD.
This is my formal apology tweet to all the emails that have gone unanswered over the past few months. An apology email tour is planned.
Now on to submitting this growing pile of paper manuscripts!

Introducing: socstrat
A new command available on ssc for stata users.
This command cleans and generates a full analytical 8-category NS-SEC based on either SOC 90, 00, 10, or 20 as well as RGSC on SOC 90, 00, or 10.
Hopefully this makes life a little easier for people.

Bit of a Hail Mary ask but does anyone have a link to the SOC 2020 derivation of NS-SEC that includes the 1.1 & 1.2 breakdown of NS-SEC 1?
The official documentation appears to have abandoned this practice from SOC 90-2010. Or are you now forced to code into operational classes -> analytical now?

Negative loading of social intercourse

Wee jaunt to University of Stirling for a super useful and informative weights workshop delivered by Pierre Walthery from the UK Data Service. Cheers @kateohara.bsky.social for organising through the Large Social Surveys group (time to make a blue sky account so I can tag you pls).

Academics wanting to 'verify' their Bluesky profile as genuine might give an ORCID identifier in their profile and link back to their Bluesky profile from ORCID.

It seems that there was no Sociology Journals starter pack, so we created one: go.bsky.app/93ta3Gs -- do let us know which journals we missed!

I am already foreseeing the papers coming from the Bluesky rev. Who gets sorted into the most prestigious “starter packs” as reifying status etc #socsky

Let’s see if I can do this right. I’m just finishing writing up my PhD on youth transitions with a focus on social stratification and handling missing data, say hi and maybe offer me a job?
