Social Capital is the glue that holds the social fabric of society together. In today's new media scenario, what are the differences in the levels of social capital in youth who have access to both offline and online social worlds? Does the Internet supplement/complement/decrease social capital in youth? These are some of the issues that are sought to be answered in this PhD thesis by Kalyani Subramanian from the University of Madras, Chennai.

Understanding Online Social Networking in Terms of Mental Health: A Boon or Bane? By Suyog V Jaiswal in Research in Medical & Engineering Sciences
Influence of self presentation on bridging social capital in sn ss
This document summarizes a research study that examined how self-presentation on social networking sites influences bridging social capital. The study surveyed 199 students at a Chinese university. It found that effective self-presentation on social networking sites helps users build bridging social capital by connecting them to acquaintances and strangers who can provide useful information. Self-presentation had a strong moderating effect on the relationship between social networking site usage and bridging social capital. The document provides context on key concepts like self-presentation, social capital, and bridging versus bonding social capital.
Internet & Social Life Zineb Boukili
This document discusses research on the social impacts of internet use. It finds that while the internet increases connectivity, it can also weaken community ties and interpersonal relationships by replacing face-to-face interactions. Additionally, the anonymity of the internet facilitates behaviors like pornography, crime, and the expression of taboo ideas. However, the internet also allows people to connect with others who share interests and identities, and can help those with stigmatized identities feel less isolated. Overall, the internet both positively and negatively impacts social interactions and relationships.

Article
The document discusses how the internet may impact social capital. It presents three perspectives: that the internet increases social capital by enabling new forms of interaction and community; decreases social capital by competing for time and reducing offline social interaction; or supplements social capital by providing an additional means of communication without major effects on offline social life. The document then analyzes data from a 1998 survey of National Geographic website visitors to evaluate these perspectives.

GCAA 2010 Southeastern Colloquium On Racial Inequality and PovertyKirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity
1. The keynote address discusses structural racialization and how racial inequalities are perpetuated through institutional and systemic arrangements rather than individual racist actors.
2. Structural racialization accounts for how the cumulative interactions between institutions produce racialized outcomes, with people situated differently with regards to access to opportunity structures.
3. Targeted universalism is proposed as a framework to remedy opportunity isolation and promote justice, where universal policies acknowledge differentiated impacts and connect marginalized groups to opportunities.Marital Status, Individualism And On Line
This document summarizes research on how marital status and individualism are related to online social behaviors. It hypothesizes that singles will be more individualistic and attracted to making friends online compared to married people. The research found that singles were more likely to endorse individualistic beliefs and view making friends as the main benefit of the internet. Additionally, having online friendships was linked to more real-life connections, and this effect was stronger for married people. The findings suggest the internet may magnify existing social tendencies related to marital status.

This document summarizes a study on incidental information seeking on Facebook. The study found that while people did not see themselves as likely to use Facebook for information seeking, some did post questions to their network. Factors like age, education level, and engagement with connections influenced people's likelihood of seeking information on Facebook. The types of questions asked and what makes Facebook suitable versus search engines for different questions require more exploration. The researcher plans to continue analyzing data to better understand information seeking and sharing behaviors on the social network.

Low incomefullfinal
The document discusses the information behaviors and needs of low-income communities. It notes that informal social networks are important sources of information for things like community services, healthcare, education, and employment. Friends, family, and community organizations are often more critical information sources than libraries. The barriers low-income individuals face include lack of access to resources, lack of trust in outside information, and not knowing how to access education and employment opportunities.

Political Influentials - IPDI report
This study examines online political citizens (OPCs), who are highly engaged with politics online. A survey found that 69% of OPCs are "influentials" who influence friends' opinions. OPCs are more likely than the general public to be younger, male, wealthy, white, and college-educated. They are also more likely to donate to political campaigns, participate in online political activities, and qualify as influentials based on civic participation. The study estimates that OPCs comprise about 7% of the U.S. population and represent a small but influential minority.

This document summarizes a presentation about advancing opportunity in the Mahoning Valley region of Ohio. It discusses how opportunity is shaped by access to education, employment, housing and other factors which are often unequally distributed along racial lines. Maps show patterns of racial and economic segregation in the region's neighborhoods, schools and communities. The document recommends organizing around issues like criminal justice reform and housing to promote greater access to opportunity for all residents of the region.
GIS in Social Sciences
This document provides an overview of a class presentation given by Samir Gambhir of the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity. The presentation discusses how maps can be used to effectively convey information about issues of equity and social justice. Specifically, maps allow for overlaying multiple data points, telling stories through spatial context, and engaging stakeholders through a visual format. Examples are given of how maps have been used to analyze opportunities for minority-owned businesses, hospital investments relative to minority neighborhoods, and targeting areas for advocacy around policies like the Earned Income Tax Credit.
EDA Journal 2015.Vol8.No4
This document discusses developing entrepreneurial communities in rural areas through networks. It explores how rural communities can become more innovative by identifying factors that enable them to develop entrepreneurial capacity. The theoretical foundation discussed is social embeddedness, which is the notion that economic actions are influenced by social context. There are three types of embeddedness explored: relational (strength of ties between actors), structural (architecture of the network), and positional (actor's role in the network). High embeddedness can both help and hinder entrepreneurial success by facilitating norms and access to resources, but also potentially limiting new opportunities and information flow if ties are too strong. Developing entrepreneurial rural communities requires understanding how an entrepreneur's social networks can both support and constrain their
The Internet is a magnifying glass
The document discusses how social capital theory can help explain the social effects of the Internet. It argues that individuals and communities with higher levels of social capital, as measured by factors like generalized reciprocity and social ties, will be more socially active online as well as offline. Empirical evidence from studies in Los Angeles and of U.S. states supports this, finding those with more offline social connections and belonging were more likely to make online friends or participate in online groups. The document calls for more research examining social capital and online activity over time and across different communities.
Social Identity: True Identity or Persona
Individuals curate misleading representations of themselves online to gain social approval. Due to the desire for likes and followers, teens' identities become defined by social media rather than their authentic selves. The need for online acceptance disconnects youth from real-world relationships and isolates users focused on curating flattering social media profiles.
Online Dating - Examining the drawbacks of online dating
The document summarizes some of the drawbacks of online dating based on research and statistics. It notes that while over 50 million Americans have tried online dating, there are safety and deception issues. Specifically, it discusses how dating websites do not conduct background checks, some users lie about their profiles, and relationships can become isolated. The document questions whether online algorithms can truly assess compatibility and find a long-term match. In the end, it raises concerns about whether online dating poses risks, especially for teens, but does not come to a clear conclusion.
Zaff et al (2014)
This document discusses alignment of perceived needs across different levels of a community focused on supporting youth. It finds that direct service providers and families had the most aligned perceptions of needs, focusing on basic needs like food and transportation. Leadership of the comprehensive community initiative perceived needs in terms of programmatic efforts to support youth development. Overall, there was the least alignment between leadership and families. The study suggests assessing alignment can help identify areas of alignment and misalignment to better support youth across a community.

Can Internet technology still revolutionize activism?
The document discusses the effectiveness of Internet activism and whether it can truly revolutionize grassroots participation. While early predictions saw the Internet empowering individuals, e-mail petitions are now seen as flawed due to duplication and lack of commitment. Web-based petitions require more initiative but still see limited success. However, the Internet remains effective for mobilizing demonstrations and coordinating mass actions across large areas through easy distribution of event information. Some groups also utilize virtual sit-ins to flood and temporarily disable opponent websites, though such tactics remain controversial.

Carol Wan Ting Soon – Net technologies, net again: An institutional and micro...Danube University Krems, Centre for E-Governance
This document summarizes Carol Soon's study on how digital technologies enable activists in Singapore to participate in collective action despite institutional constraints. Activist bloggers in Singapore use the internet, namely blogs and social media, to overcome limitations to collective incentives, structural availability, and structural proximity imposed by Singapore's authoritarian governance. Specifically, the internet allows activists to connect with others with similar views, coordinate activism work more easily across distances, and circumvent constraints on offline political discourse and organization. While digital activism can be transient, it effectively recruits new activists and connects them to larger networks to push for alternative and reformative social change.Cost of-segregation
Higher levels of economic segregation are associated with lower incomes, particularly for black residents. Higher levels of racial segregation are associated with lower incomes for blacks, lower educational attainment for whites and blacks, and lower levels of safety for all area residents.”

CUR essay 2
The social capital and civic engagement in the United States has been declining since the 1950s as younger generations have become more focused on individualism and less involved in their communities. Technology and social media use has increased dramatically and some argue this contributes to declines in social and political engagement as people interact face-to-face less. While new technologies provide opportunities for political information and organizing, they can also distract people and political decisions are sometimes based on superficial factors rather than issues. Scholars debate the causes and consequences of declining social capital for democracy.

196.capital structure intro lecture 1
This document discusses capital structure and related concepts. It defines capital structure as the mix of securities used to finance a firm's operations. These include debt, preferred shares, and common shares. The document outlines sources of capital, costs and risks associated with different types of financing, and major theories of capital structure, including the tradeoff theory that argues an optimal structure balances tax benefits of debt against higher financial distress costs.

This document provides guidelines for a 10-minute PowerPoint presentation of a final dissertation for a viva-voce examination. It recommends including an opening slide with key details, followed by slides on the guides, statement of problem, objectives, research design, scope and limitations, and summary of findings over 3 minutes. Another set of slides should summarize additional findings over 3 more minutes. The presentation should conclude with 1 minute on conclusions and 2 minutes on suggestions, ending with a thank you slide. Attendees should prepare a chart with key elements like the title, problem statement, objectives, research design, findings, conclusions and suggestions to help structure the presentation without relying solely on slides.
Thesis powerpoint
This document provides tips for writing a thesis. It discusses starting the writing process early by choosing a title and outline. The outline should summarize the argument in one sentence for each chapter. Material should be collected in a binder as it is researched. Examiners will want to understand the thesis quickly, so the abstract, conclusions, and contents should clearly convey the purpose and findings. Getting feedback from others helps improve the thesis before examination. Regularly interacting with potential examiners also helps them understand and appreciate the research.

This document summarizes a research study that examined self-determination in post-secondary students with learning disabilities based on whether they were identified as having an LD in primary/secondary school or as an adult. The study found no statistically significant differences in self-determination, as measured by a self-determination scale, between the two groups of students. The discussion considers limitations of the study related to measurement, sample size, and sampling biases. Implications are discussed for further examining the relationship between time of LD identification and self-determination with more reliable measures and larger sample sizes.
Design thinking action lab assignment - Define and Empathize
The document outlines an assignment to understand challenges with the traditional path from education to employment. It involves interviewing stakeholders, creating an empathy map, and defining a problem statement. The empathy map identifies issues such as the education system not adequately preparing students for real-world challenges, a lack of skills like collaboration being taught, and students undergoing emotional stress during career transitions. The problem statement focuses on finding a way to make the school-to-work transition more productive for both employees and employers.

The document also examines how governments and organizations are using social media as a public relations tool to engage with stakeholders.
The impacts of facebook on young adults
This document analyzes the impact of Facebook on youth. It begins with definitions of social networks and a brief history of Facebook. It then provides Facebook statistics about user demographics in Australia. The document discusses both the pros and cons of Facebook usage. It examines influences on education, initial problems educators face with social media, and ways to adapt such as learning about, from, and with social networks. Issues around privacy, teen behavior, and identity management are also covered.
Youth Unlimited
This document provides guidance for developing and implementing effective e-mentoring programs for at-risk youth, based on lessons learned from the Urban Youth What It Takes e-mentoring initiative. Key aspects discussed include establishing partnerships, program rationale focused on innovations for serving African American boys, program planning considerations, selecting an e-mentoring platform, recruiting and engaging youth and mentors, integrating online and offline activities, implementation, progress measurement, and conclusions. The power of partnerships, an asset-based approach, and capitalizing on youths' affinity for technology were found to be important factors for success.
Social capital and virtual communities
This document discusses social capital and virtual communities. It defines social capital as the resources available through social networks, including trust, norms, and information sharing. Virtual communities are groups of people who interact online through repeated contact on a shared platform. Prior research indicates that social capital can exist in online communities through networks, norms, and volunteerism. However, more research is needed on how technology and social processes can encourage active participation and community commitment. The author plans to study several online gaming and interest-based communities to understand how site features and social interactions influence social capital building. Preliminary results suggest subgroups, norms, identity policies, and recognition contribute to successful communities for social activity focused on shared interests.
Internet and participatory culture opportunities and challenges-ppt
The document discusses the opportunities and challenges of increased participation in internet culture. It finds that while internet usage in India has grown significantly, with over 100 million users, only 19% of users can be considered truly participatory by creating and sharing content. Younger users and those in urban areas are more likely to participate. The opportunities of participatory culture include user-generated content, virtual communities, and empowered civic engagement. However, challenges include a participation gap among non-internet users and issues around transparency, gatekeeping, and the breakdown of traditional training models with new media.

The document discusses the opportunities and challenges of increased participation in internet culture. It finds that while internet usage in India has grown significantly, with over 120 million users, only 19% of users actively create or share content online. New media tools have allowed for more interactivity and collective participation. However, barriers like lack of skills, tools and interest prevent many from content creation. Increased participation culture through the internet can empower users but also raises issues around transparency, gatekeeping and ethics that challenge traditional media forms.

Social Networks
No inventions of the 20th Century surpass the Internet, which is a modern-day vessel for communication, information, and entertainment, all rolled into one! It has greatly improved humanity’s ability to communicate effectively by time to response; it is often the principle source of information on any possible topic from baby care to auto mechanics. If you are seeking entertainment, just click on one of the million websites available. Now the Internet has entered a new realm, social networking with services which are said to enable their users to maintain and dissolve friendships online. Traditionally, an individual’s social networking needs, which date back to the beginning of mankind, were dependent on the individuals’ immediate environment and their interactions within (out) it; how they interacted with people in their community, school, or workplace. Online social networking has changed by expanding the environment for interaction from those named above to large and extensive networks that cover the world.
The following research paper attempts to explore the advent and evolution of social networking sites, their benefits and the dangers of online social networking sites as it relates to human relations. It also aims to determine whether social networking sites enable people to form effective bonds, or is it actually the destroyer of human interactions by reducing man to man contact, as well as the erosion of privacy.
The dictionary definition of the word “effective” is “successful in producing a desired or intended result” also defined as “existing in fact, though not formally acknowledged as such (Oxford dictionaries, 2011).” To effectively achieve a desired goal or result, all the necessary conditions must be availed and adhered to, failure to which, this goal will not be accomplished. For example for one’s studies to be effective, the learner should be focused in all ways, right from attending lessons, timely completion and submission of assignments.
Various issues demand some conditions so as to achieve a given goal. This seems sometimes as part of the main idea, that is the lack of it implies part of the deal is not there hence partial accomplishment. An example of this is a vehicle for one to effectively travel; all the components of the vehicle, such as fuel, tire, and other parts of the vehicle must be in good condition for the journey to be a success. Therefore effectiveness is reached after accomplishing these stipulations.
As for the research topic, it is evident that for people to meet and communicate effectively they must exist social networks, that will help link and bring them together to a site where they can exchange ideas in the process of knowing each other, something which takes place with time. For effective communication in these websites, a lot need to be availed, so as to enable these individuals communicate effectively. Such components include, an open minded person, ready to fully discuss .
Connect To Survive - The Digital Divide
The document discusses several topics related to connecting and surviving the digital divide:
1. It outlines how Web 2.0 tools like blogs, social networks, and content sharing platforms have created a new knowledge paradigm where value is created through collaboration and connectivity. Those who do not embrace these changes may become isolated.
2. It examines how different generations have varying levels of digital literacy and expectations of how technology should be used. This creates challenges for organizations with multigenerational workforces.
3. It notes that while online consultation can increase participation, barriers like age, income, and skills still contribute to a "digital divide." Not all groups are equally able to engage through digital means alone.

The document summarizes a study on the socio-cultural impact of social media among female university students in Chennai, India. It conducted surveys of 150 students to analyze how social media influences their social relationships, academics, and cultural values. The study found that social media primarily impacts students' relationships with close friends and family, but does not significantly influence their cultural practices or attitudes based on gender. While social media can positively impact social connections, it can also negatively affect students' academic performance by distracting them and reducing reading/study habits. The document concludes that social media is widely used by university students both positively and negatively, so governments and parents should provide oversight and guidance on appropriate social media use.
Social networking .ppt
Social networking allows individuals to construct public profiles, connect with others, and view connections within the system. It has evolved from early 20th century ideas to today's major sites like Facebook. Networks can be analyzed at the micro, meso, and macro levels. While social networking provides benefits like strengthening relationships, it also poses privacy and addiction risks. The growth of social networks is evidenced by increasing related patents over time.
Introduction to Computational Social Science
The emerging field of computational social science (CSS) is devoted to the pursuit of interdisciplinary social science research from an information processing perspective, through the medium of advanced computing and information technologies.
Cms 298 chapter 2 pres
Teens today rely heavily on social media to build and maintain friendships as interacting online allows them to stay connected beyond physical boundaries. Several studies found that teens view engaging with social media as important for developing and maintaining friendships with peers when getting together in person is not possible. While social media allows teens to potentially make new friends online, most tend to connect with people they already know. Maintaining an online social network and displaying friend connections provides a sense of social identity and status among peers. However, the public nature of social media can also lead to drama and bullying as gossip and rumors spread more widely online.
Conceptual approaches to adolescent online risk
This document discusses two conceptual approaches - social compensation and rich-get-richer - that have been proposed to explain adolescent online risk-taking behaviors. It summarizes a study that examined which approach better predicts such behaviors using data from the Pew Internet Foundation. The study found that predictors of risk-taking included a lack of extracurricular activities, especially for boys, and infrequent socializing with friends in person, especially for girls. This supports the social compensation approach, which posits that those with less satisfying offline lives engage in more online risk as compensation. The document provides background on the approaches and outlines the study's methodology using the Pew Internet Foundation survey data to analyze relationships between adolescent characteristics and risk behaviors.
Use of Social Media by Urban Indian Youth and its impact on Social Behavior
Use of Social Media by Urban Indian Youth and its impact on Social BehaviorNational Institute of Mass Communication and Journalism, Ahmedabad
Abstract: In todays’ fast paced world we keep ourselves updated and informed about various happenings around us and form opinions and make judgments on various issues through the use of social media. Internet and rapid digitalization has impacted every aspect of lives across all age groups by making our communication impersonal. Usage of social media and Social Networking Sites (SNS) has increased significantly with far reaching impacts on the social, emotional, academic and physical development of the youth today. All forms of communications particularly, face-to-face social interactions have been reduced to virtual chats over the internet. Extensive usage of SNS is also influencing their interpersonal relationships particularly with their family members, friends and society at large which is likely to be more pronounced in the impressionable age group of 15 – 25 years. This paper endeavors to throw light on above mentioned aspects through research, review of literature and aims to examine the impact of social media on the social behavior of urban Indian youth with special reference to the youth of Ahmedabad.Could social networking online help NEET young people gain employment?
This document discusses research into whether social networking online can help young people classified as NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) gain employment. It begins by defining NEET and providing statistics on NEET rates. It then reviews literature on social networks and information diffusion, networking as information seeking behavior, and use of social media tools for networking. The document outlines research questions on offline networking behaviors, how social media supports networking during job searches, and how networking can improve employability. The proposed methodology includes surveys and case studies to explore how NEETs source information through social contacts and use social media for networking during job searches.
So-Sial Networking
Gunalan Ranganahan is presenting a final year project on the negative impacts of social networking. The project will use projection mapping to demonstrate how social networking can negatively impact individuals and society through teasing. Research found that while users are aware of potential downsides, many underestimate the risks or become addicted. The presentation will last 2-5 minutes and use text, images, video, animation and sound effects to metaphorically portray social networking's downsides like privacy issues, stress on families, and addiction. The goal is to educate viewers on social media's realities beyond communication.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
