POPNET Connects: Marjolein Das

Using a whole population network in the social sciences

Network research can have enormous added value in different substantive research fields, ranging from epidemiology and infectious disease control to economics and the social sciences. This talk focuses on the use of integral administrative register data within the social sciences, in particular the Dutch whole population network which contains links between neighbours, household members, family, colleagues and classmates. Marjolein Das will present social research done at CBS with register data and with the network, such as contagion of demographic behaviour, segregation, and clustering of crime within networks. Das will also sketch avenues for future social research.
