New data available: Old Age in Germany (D80+)
by Stuth, Stefan 11 Dec '23

11 Dec '23

New data available in the RDC of the DZA: Old Age in Germany (D80+) >From now on, not only Data from the German Ageing Survey<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/german-ageing-survey> (DEAS) and PREFER<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/prefer> (Personal Resources of Elderly People with Multimorbidity) are available for scientific research at the Research-data-center (RDC) of the DZA, but also a new dataset - the Scientific Use File of the study "Old Age in Germany" (D80+). The study was conducted by the University of Cologne and ceres (cologne centre for ethics, rights, economics, and social sciences of health) in cooperation with the German Centre of Gerontology (DZA). With D80+, the population aged 80 years and older was surveyed nationwide in two phases in order to obtain representative information on living conditions and quality of life for the very old. The study has an interdisciplinary design and also specifically addresses people who are no longer able to provide information themselves by having people close to them answer the questions on their behalf (proxy interviews). Furthermore, the sample was extended to include people in institutionalised forms of housing or care homes The design of the study had to be changed due to the coronavirus pandemic: the planned face-to-face survey was turned into a combined written and telephone survey. More than 10,000 people took part in the survey. The Scientific Use File can be applied for online<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/access-to-data/application>. The data can be freely accessed for scientific purposes after the conclusion of a written data usage agreement. In addition to the data, various documentation<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/d80/documentation> materials and a compilation of previous publications are available on our website<https://www.dza.de/en/research/fdz/d80>. Enjoy working with this new treasure trove of data!

CfP: ESA Research Stream 'Sociology of Spatial Mobilities'
by Knut Petzold 08 Dec '23

08 Dec '23

Dear list members, We would like to draw your attention to the Call for Papers for the Research Stream 'Sociology of Spatial Mobilities', which will take place again at the 16th Conference of the European Sociological Association (ESA) in Porto, 27-30 August 2024. As in 2019 in Manchester and 2021 in Barcelona (online), the Research Stream (RS) will provide a broad forum for current research on topics related to spatial mobility. Details of the Call for Papers for the RS can be found below and in the attachment. The deadline for submitting abstracts is 15 January 2024. Abstracts (max. 250 words) must be submitted via the conference platform: https://www.conftool.com/esa2024/ General information about the conference is available here: https://www.europeansociology.org/conference/2024 We look forward to receiving your submissions! Best regards, Knut, Heiko and Gil RS11 - Sociology of Spatial Mobilities Coordinators: Knut Petzold, Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences, Germany Heiko Rüger, Federal Institute for Population Research (BiB), Germany Gil Viry, University of Edinburgh, UK Recent decades have seen the emergence of more complex forms of spatial mobility, such as long-distance commuting, circular migration, multi-residential living, studying abroad, intensive travelling and virtual mobility via the Internet. Major social changes, such as migration and refugee flows, the pluralisation of living arrangements, labour market deregulation and digitalisation have made the study of spatial mobilities increasingly important for a broader understanding of many sociological issues. Spatial mobility is linked in many ways to key sociological concepts. For example, it is often considered a prerequisite for upward social mobility and social participation. However, access to spatial (digital) mobility is unequally distributed, resulting in different barriers to movement among diverse social groups, in particular across gender, ethnic or class lines. This unequal propensity to benefit from (im)mobility is particularly visible in times of crises, such as wars, pandemics and climate change. The Research Stream will bring together researchers from different sociological fields and investigate how spatial (im)mobilities can be conceptualised from different perspectives and how these mobility-based concepts can be integrated into existing sociological traditions. Possible session themes include: • Theories, concepts and methods of studying spatial (im)mobilities • Spatial (im)mobilities, residential choice and decision-making processes • Practices of spatial (im)mobilities and organisation of everyday life • Spatial (im)mobilities over the life course and interrelations with various life domains • Spatial (im)mobilities, social mobility and social inequalities • Meanings and ideologies connected with spatial (im)mobilities • Virtual/digital spatial mobility and its relation to corporeal spatial mobility • Work-related travel, working from home and housing • Mobilities and inequalities during crises, including the war in Ukraine and the Israel-Gaza crisis

Submit your abstract this week: 5th Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys (MASS) Workshop in Washington DC
by Höhne, Jan Karem 27 Nov '23

27 Nov '23

***Apologies for cross-posting Dear colleagues, The abstract submission deadline for the 5th Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys (MASS) workshop ends this week (December 1, 2023 ). MASS takes place in Washington DC (USA) from March 6-7, 2024. Please find the MASS call here: https://massworkshop.org/2023/10/25/call-for-abstracts-for-5th-mass-worksho… This time, the Mobile Apps and Sensors in Surveys (MASS; see https://massworkshop.org/) workshop takes place jointly with the Current Innovations in Probability-based Household Internet Panel Research (CIPHER; see https://cesr.usc.edu/about_us) conference. CIPHER will be held from March 7-8, and presenters at either event are invited to attend both events. Context of the workshop Mobile devices allow researchers to collect data through built-in sensors, such as GPS, accelerometers, and other sensors, passively collect data in-browser, and use apps in addition to self-reports. Passive mobile data collection can potentially decrease measurement errors and reduce respondent burden. Active data collection using apps, camera, microphone, and other sensors allows researchers to broaden the research questions they want to study. Incorporating new measurements to augment or replace survey questions through sensors and apps brings challenges for representativeness, survey design and implementation, and measurement. This also includes ethical and legal considerations that are yet to be understood. The goal of this workshop is to bring together around 40 researchers from different disciplines to discuss the current state of their work on the use of mobile apps and sensors in survey data collection. The workshop is only open to people who are presenting a paper at CIPHER or MASS. Upon acceptance participants are expected to submit a handout (max. of 5 pages). The fourth MASS workshop was held at the University of Manchester in June 2023 (see https://massworkshop.org/2022/04/13/materials_2023/). Importantly, even though MASS and CIPHER take place jointly, both events manage their submission and registration process separately. Researchers are eligible to submit abstracts to MASS and CIPHER, but the content of the abstracts must differ and should be tailored to the scope of the events. Participants accepted for CIPHER can also participate in MASS, and vice versa. Topic scope of the workshop For the fifth MASS workshop, we invite contributions that focus, among others, on the following issues when using mobile apps and sensors in surveys: - Technical aspects of mobile apps and sensors o Different ways to collect sensor data o Building apps for Android and iOS o Data processing and storage - Study and app design o Look and feel of apps o Usability studies o Use of incentives o Giving feedback to respondents - Implementation o Willingness to participate and informed consent o Methods to invite and communicate with study participants o Study length and study intensity o Legal considerations o Ethical and privacy considerations - Quality of sensor data o Errors of non-representation (e.g., self-selection, coverage, and non-participation) o Measurement error (e.g., prevention, modeling, and correction) - Data analysis o Analyzing sensor data (e.g., through machine and deep learning) o Combining survey, sensor, and app data We specifically encourage submission of work in progress and are particularly interested in studies that used an experimental design to test strategies to collect data using mobile apps and sensors successfully. We are open to both empirical studies as well as descriptions of data collection infrastructure (e.g., front- or backend of an app) and processing of data from apps and sensors. Travel support for PhD students MASS workshop can provide travel support (up to $600) for PhD students. PhD students who want to be considered for travel support need to state this in their submission email and provide an explanation for why they should be considered for travel support. Submission process and timeline Please submit your abstract (max. 500 words) for the workshop to hoehne(a)dzhw.eu<mailto:hoehne@dzhw.eu>. The abstract should contain a research question, data collection procedures/the description of the app, and results if available. If results are not available yet, the abstract should outline the type of analyses that will be presented at the workshop and whether data collection took place already. Participation in the workshop is only possible when an abstract is accepted for the workshop. We intend to keep the workshop limited to about 40 participants. Timeline: 01 December 2023: Deadline for abstract submission 10 December 2023: Feedback on acceptance will be provided 15 February 2024: Deadline for handout submission - all participants will be required to submit a 5-page handout presenting context, screenshots, tables, or other supporting materials for the workshop. Participants are expected to read all handouts before coming to the workshop. 06 March 2024: Start of MASS workshop We are really looking forward to your MASS submissions.

CfA für Tagung zu "Social Norms"
by Heinz Leitgöb 09 Nov '23

09 Nov '23

Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen, im Namen von Andreas Diekmann darf ich Sie auf den nachfolgenden Call for Abstracts hinweisen. Herzliche Grüße Heinz Leitgöb ****************************************************************************************** Social Norms: Emergence, Stability, Social Change Conference at Centro Stefano Franscini, Monte Verita, Ascona, Switzerland, July 7 to 10, 2024 Organized by Andreas Diekmann, University of Leipzig & ETH Zurich and Jörg Rössel, Univiversiy of Zurich Social norms are fundamental for the social cohesion of societies. They constrain human actions, but they are also of essential importance in enabling us to act at all, coordinate actions and solve cooperation problems. Theoretical and empirical studies of social norms are conducted across disciplines in sociology, psychology, behavioral economics, political science, philosophy, and other social and human sciences. While much of existing research is concerned with compliance with social norms, in the planned conference we will also focus particular attention on analyses of the emergence and change of social norms. While the main thrust of the conference is on the explanation of norm emergence and norm change, systematic studies of international/cultural differences in norms or historical change of norms are also welcome. In addition, we will focus on applications of the findings from research on how social norms change and operate. Today, there are numerous new findings in this field, which are particularly relevant in the context of the climate problem and energy transition but also for other currently debated issues like changing gender norms and the use of artificial intelligence, to name just a few. Since norms also constrain human action, they might be perceived as harmful by those who are subject to the norms or by external observers. One example is the practice of "female genital mutilation" (FMG). The conference will bring together early career and senior researchers from various countries and disciplines to share new research findings. Presentations may focus on both basic research, such as the development of new theoretical perspectives and the testing of theories, and policy-relevant applications of norms research. Key topics are: (1) New perspectives, hypotheses, and empirical findings concerning the emergence of social norms. (2) Addressing the question on how to measure social norms. Contributions from different methodological perspectives are welcome. (3) Studies on international/cultural differences in norms of historical change of social norms. (4) The state of knowledge on conditions that contribute to the change of social norms or to cultural differences in social norms. (5) The contribution of social norms to ensure social cooperation. (6) Stability of social norms. The role of rewards and sanctions. (7) The emergence, change, and decay of signaling norms. (8) Inducing change when norms are “sticky” and detrimental.
