"Computational
Approaches to Sociological Theorizing" (PDF file) Author: Kathleen M. Carley Abstract Sociologists are concerned with explaining and predicting social behavior. Theorists are not concerned with providing a description of society at a particular point in time. Rather, they are in the business of providing insight into how societies change, into the dynamics underlying behavior, into the processes that result in the observed correlations and into the way in which multiple factors come together to create specific social situation. | ||
