in-kind

Examples of in-kind in the following topics:

• Neuroglia of the Peripheral Nervous System

  • The two kinds of glia cells in the PNS, schwann cells and satellite cells, each have unique functions.
  • The PNS has two kinds of neuroglia: schwann cells and satellite cells.
  • Satellite cells are small glia that surround neurons' sensory ganglia in the ANS.
  • These resemble the astrocytes of the CNS and assist in regulating the external chemical environment.

• Study questions

  • If they did, what kinds of matrices were they (that is, what is the technical description of the kind of graph or matrix).
  • What kinds of relations among them might tell us something about the social structures in this population?
  • Can you extend this matrix to also describe a second kind of relation?
  • Using the matrices you created in the previous question, does it make sense to leave the diagonal "blank," or not, in your case?
  • what about the "line" and "circle. " Look at the ones and zeros in these matrices -- sometimes we can recognize the presence of certain kinds of social relations by these "digital" representations.

• Summary

  • The actors in the kinds of networks that social scientists study are very frequently connected by more than one type of tie, simultaneously.
  • In this chapter, we've introduced a few of the tools that are commonly used to help to make sense of the complex patterns of embedding that can emerge when there is more than one kind of tie operating simultaneously.
  • Multi-plex data are usually stored in a data structure of node-by-node matrices that are "stacked" as "slices" in a single file.
  • With relatively small networks, and relatively small numbers of relations, graphs can be prepared that show the unions and intersections of multiple kinds of relations, or "animate" change over time in network structure.
  • Alternatively, the information about different kinds of ties may be combined into more complex typologies using logical relations and "role algebra."

• Introduction to relations

  • In many network studies, all of the ties of a given type among all of the selected nodes are studied -- that is, a census is conducted.
  • There is also a second kind of sampling of ties that always occurs in network data.
  • Any set of actors might be connected by many different kinds of ties and relations (e.g. students in a classroom might like or dislike each other, they might play together or not, they might share food or not, etc.).
  • When we collect network data, we are usually selecting, or sampling, from among a set of kinds of relations that we might have measured.

• Study questions

  • In a sociogram, what is used for nodes?
  • How can multi-plex relations be represented in graphs?
  • If they did, what kinds of graphs were they (that is, what is the technical description of the kind of graph or matrix).
  • What kinds of relations among them might tell us something about the social structures in this population?
  • Can you extend this graph to also describe a second kind of relation?

• Introduction to connection

  • Small groups differ from large groups in many important ways -- indeed, population size is one of the most critical variables in all sociological analyses.
  • Differences in how connected the actors in a population are may be a key indicator of the "cohesion," "solidarity," "moral density," and "complexity" of the social organization of a population.
  • These kinds of very basic differences among actors immediate connections may be critical in explaining how they view the world, and how the world views them.
  • The number and kinds of ties that actors have are a basis for similarity or dissimilarity to other actors -- and hence to possible differentiation and stratification.
  • The number and kinds of ties that actors have are keys to determining how much their embeddedness in the network constrains their behavior, and the range of opportunities, influence, and power that they have.

• Using Different Kinds of Appeals

  • The two primary kinds of appeals are evidential and emotional appeals.
  • In persuasive speaking, the speaker must first explain the evidence in a way that is comprehensible to the audience, yet complete.
  • Emotional appeals can manifest in a number of ways.
  • Metaphors, stories, and passionate delivery are all emotional appeals because their effectiveness lies not only in the words, but in the emotions they evoke in the audience.
  • The only type of rhetorical appeal accepted in a courtroom in an evidential appeal.

• Verb Position

  • One of the most important grammatical concepts in German is that the conjugated verb is always in the second position of the main clause.  
  • Understand the position of the conjugated verb in a main clause

• Introduction to kinds of graphs

  • Now we need to introduce some terminology to describe different kinds of graphs.
  • The social relations being described here are also simplex (in figures 3.2 and 3.3).
  • Let's take a moment to review some of this terminology in a little more detail.
