Academic ambitions can be contagious among early teens, even more so than actual achievements (beyond selection)

Found strong evidence on network longitudinal data on 407 ~13-yr old Hungarian students (ML Bayesian SAOMs disentangling influence from selection)

Kicking off the 2024 Behave Summer School on agent-based modelling

2 weeks (intro + advanced) of hands-on training from concept to analysis through coding & data integration w/ opportunities for consultation with the faculty

Much on intergenerational (IG) ties, rarely backed by fine-grained data. We have looked into ego-net data of an Italian ageing community.

IG ties are:
- more active and integrated, despite low co-residence (left)
- more prevalent with age and lower socio-econ status (right)

Still not sure of the numbers of the Italian community on this platform, but here it is:

I've just published a book in Italian on mechanisms and models of social networks

Such an inspiring workshop last week organised by the Institute for Analytical Sociology
Thank you, @selcanmutgan.bsky.social and bsky.app/profile/did:...
We definitely should do this again!
Here my presentation slides on empirical ABMs for networks
