Note: This course will provide an overview of social network analysis and how it has been, and can be, applied to study social connection and relationships broadly. While this is not a methods course, a part of the course will be dedicated to learning about key concepts in social network analysis and hands-on workshops for students to calculate network properties and visualizations using R. We will also read and discuss empirical papers that use social network analysis to study social connection and relationships; these papers will range in terms of populations studied (e.g., across development in humans, non-human primates, rodents) and additional approaches/methods that are integrated along with social network analysis (e.g., neuroscience, experiments, biological measures). No prior knowledge of social network analysis is required to take the class.
