Comparing Two Methods for Estimating Network Size
- C. McCarty, P. Killworth, H. Bernard, E. Johnsen, G. Shelley
- Geography
- 2001
In this paper we compare two methods for estimating the size of personal networks using a nationally representative sample of the United States. Both methods rely on the ability of respondents to… Expand
Estimation of Seroprevalence, Rape, and Homelessness in the United States Using a Social Network Approach
- P. Killworth, C. McCarty, H. Bernard, G. Shelley, E. Johnsen
- Medicine, Psychology
- Evaluation review
- 1 April 1998
The authors have developed and tested scale-up methods, based on a simple social network theory, to estimate the size of hard-to-count subpopulations. The authors asked a nationally representative… Expand
On the rate of descent of overflows
- P. Killworth
- Geology
- 15 October 2001
The path taken by dense turbulent outflows usually requires the numerical solution of along-flow equations for mass, tracers, and momentum and cannot easily be predicted. Instead, we consider the… Expand
The reversal small-world experiment
- P. Killworth, H. Bernard
- Psychology
- 1978
Abstract This paper is an attempt to examine and define the world network of a typical individual by discovering how many of his or her acquaintances could be used as first steps in a small-world… Expand
Estimating the size of an average personal network and of an event subpopulation: Some empirical results☆
- H. Bernard, E. Johnsen, P. Killworth, S. Robinson
- Geography
- 1 June 1991
Abstract A compelling problem in a population is to estimate the number of people the average person knows. A consequential related problem is to estimate the size of important subpopulations. A… Expand
On rotating thermal convection driven by non-uniform heating from below
- P. Hignett, A. Ibbetson, P. Killworth
- Physics
- 1 August 1981
Experiments are described in which a radial temperature gradient is maintained along the lower horizontal boundary of a rotating annulus containing a thermally convecting fluid; the vertical side… Expand
Informant Accuracy in Social Network Data
- P. Killworth, H. Bernard
- Sociology
- 1 September 1976
This paper examines the problem of informant accuracy in the production of social network data, through the use of a self-monitoring network. This allows a comparison between cognitive network data… Expand
Informant accuracy in social network data IV: a comparison of clique-level structure in behavioral and cognitive network data
- H. Bernard, P. Killworth, L. Sailer
- Psychology
- 1979
Abstract This paper examines whether clique-structure in cognitive data (i.e. recall of who one talks to) may be used as a proxy for clique-structure in behavioral data (i.e. who one actually talks… Expand
On the Motion of Isolated Lenses on a Beta-Plane
- P. Killworth
- Physics
- 1 March 1983
Abstract This paper examines the motion and propagation of an isolated of anomalous water on a beta-plane, considered previously by Nof (1981). His perturbation analysis is extended to show the… Expand
On hydraulic control in a stratified fluid
- P. Killworth
- Physics
- 1 April 1992
The conditions for hydraulic control to occur in a continuously stratified fluid are discussed, using density as a vertical coordinate in place of height. A suitable definition of Froude number,… Expand
