Social network analysis is based on an assumption of the importance of relationships among interacting units. Actors and their actions are viewed as interdependent rather than independent, autonomous units Relational ties (linkages) between actors are channels for transfer or "flow" of resources (either material or nonmaterial) Network models focusing on individuals view the network structural environment as providing opportunities for or constraints on individual action Network models conceptualize structure (social, economic, political, and so forth) as lasting patterns of relations among actors Wasserman, S. and K.

Unlike more general texts, this title is designed for those current and aspiring educational researchers learning how to study, conceptualize, and analyze social networks. The author’s main intent is to encourage you to consider the social network perspective in light of your emerging research interests and evaluate how well this perspective illuminates the social complexities surrounding educational phenomena. Whether your interests lie in examining a peer’s influence on students’ achievement, the relationship between social support and teacher retention, or how the pattern of relations among parents contributes to schools’ norms, the tools introduced in this book will provide you with a slightly different take on these and other phenomena.
