Adapting Cohort-Component Methods to a Microsimulation: A case study
Puga-Gonzalez, Ivan; Bacon, Rachel J.; Voas, David; Shults, F. LeRon; Hodulik, George; Wildman, Wesley J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Social scientists generally take United Nations (UN) population projections as the baseline when considering the potential impact of any changes that could affect fertility, mortality or migration, and the UN typically ... -
Belief in God, Confidence in the Church and Secularization in Scandinavia
Lemos, Carlos; Puga-Gonzalez, Ivan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We used the three latest rounds of the religion module of International Social Survey Programme to study secularization in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, focusing on belief in God. We restricted our sample to the affiliated ... -
Dimensionality and factorial invariance of religiosity among Christians and the religiously unaffiliated: A cross-cultural analysis based on the International Social Survey Programme
Lemos, Carlos; Gore, Ross; Puga-Gonzalez, Ivan; Shults, F. LeRon (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We present a study of the dimensionality and factorial invariance of religiosity for 26 countries with a Christian heritage, based on the 1998 and 2008 rounds of the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) Religion ... -
Null models for animal social network analysis and data collected via focal sampling: Pre‐network or node network permutation?
Puga-Gonzalez, Ivan; Sueur, Cédric; Sosa, Sebastian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)In social networks analysis, two different approaches have predominated in creating null models for hypothesis testing, namely pre‐network and node network permutation approaches. Although the pre‐network permutation ... -
Simulated poaching affects global connectivity and efficiency in social networks of African savanna elephants-An exemplar of how human disturbance impacts group-living species
Wiśniewska, Maggie; Puga-Gonzalez, Ivan; Lee, Phyllis; Moss, Cynthia; Russell, Gareth; Garnier, Simon; Sueur, Cédric (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Selective harvest, such as poaching, impacts group-living animals directly through mortality of individuals with desirable traits, and indirectly by altering the structure of their social networks. Understanding the ... -
Stay on Target: Population Projections and Microsimulation Design
Bacon, Rachel J; Hodulik, George; Voas, David; Puga-Gonzalez, Ivan; Wildman, Wesley J (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Even though standard cohort component models are relatively easy to comprehend, designing simulations to match expected population estimates and projections in multiple countries and over long spans of time is surprisingly ...
