Top 5 ways to Avoid Political Bias in Research - Article Blink - 0 views

  •  
    Political bias in research occurs when you use the wrong information in your research to support your opinions. It occurs in media research where the researcher covers the policy issues. In other words, the bias that occurs in the political context of the research is known as political bias. When you do not understand the opposing political party's point of view and provide vague statements or prejudices, such biases occur in political sciences, economics, and marketing. They have strong roots in the research work, which gives a negative impression of the research study

  •  
    We live in a time of chaos, complexity and contradiction. (Sardar, 2010 [1]) Where rapid changes and transformations through technology, politics, globalisation and the climate, conspire against normality (Friedman, 2016 [2]) These times demand a fresh approach to education, one that provides learners with the thinking dispositions they need to turn challenges into opportunities, to connect their learning to their passions and emerge from their years of formal education as self-navigating life-long learners.

Four perspectives on truth, normality and education in times of rapid change - The Lear... - 0 views

  •  
    We are living in interesting, frightening and rapidly changing times. Where rapid changes and transformations through technology, politics, globalisation and the climate, conspire against normality. These times demand a fresh approach to education, one that provides learners with the thinking dispositions they need to turn challenges into opportunities.  "All that was 'normal' has now evaporated; we have entered postnormal times, the in-between period where old orthodoxies are dying, new ones have not yet emerged, and nothing really makes sense." But what thinking might guide us through this time of volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity?

Russian-American Relations: What Each Side Needs to Hear ~ GLOBAL NEWS - 0 views

  •  
    Ella Odeyash, a Russian expatriate poet living in Israel, said in one of her poems, "About both Russia and Israel I say the word 'we.'" I've lived for extended periods of time in both then-Soviet Union and America. What this means in practical terms is that I have loyalties in both places and want both places to be the best that they can be and to enjoy a fruitful relationship with one another.

Obama Unlimited ~ GLOBAL NEWS - 0 views

  •  
    Beneath a stagnant-looking surface, the current of fiscal negotiation in Washington, D.C., is moving in the expected direction - and maybe more swiftly than anyone expected. The unexpected retirement of Sen. Jim DeMint, a conservative firebrand from South Carolina, is the strongest signal yet that Republican hardliners know they can't hold back the tide of higher taxes sweeping across Capitol Hill.

  • Economic sociologist Mark Granovetter
  • The Strength of Weak Ties
  • 1973 paper
  • people are more likely to acquire jobs that they learned about through individuals they interact with infrequently rather than their close personal
  • We are connected to core groups of strong ties that we interact with frequently and weak ties that we interact with infrequently

      Moreno (1951:1931)
  • the "strength of weak ties" states that weak ties facilitate information flow from disparate clusters of people
    • enrique garcia
       
      Innovation related to distant people (weak connections)
  • tight-knit social circles tend to be small relative to people's entire social network, and when it comes to information about future job opportunities, it can be hard to find new leads.
  • Weak ties help spread novel information by bridging the gap between clusters of strong tie contacts
  • homophily [3], the tendency of individuals with similar characteristics to associate with one another.
    • enrique garcia
       
      Inbreeding (Endogamia)
  • Individuals are connected to each other through workplaces, professions, schools, clubs, hobbies, political beliefs and other affiliations.  The homophily principle holds true for any kind of social network you can think of:
  • even the people you ride the bus with.
  • these commonalities not only shape how often people interact and what they talk about, but also what kinds of information they as individuals seek on the Web.
  • Homophily suggests that people who interact frequently are similar and may consume more of the same information. 
  • Individuals that interact less often tend to be dissimilar and may consume more diverse information. 
  • We found that people are more likely to share the information they were exposed to by their strong ties than by their weak ties on Facebook (Figure 3).   
  • strength between two individuals is measured by the number of comments a person received from their friend on Facebook
  • Other measurements of tie strength, like the number of messages, co-appearances in photos, and discussion on posts are discussed in our paper [5].
  • There are many possible explanations for the increased flow of information across strong ties
  • information shared by a person's weak ties is unlikely to be shared at a later point in time independently of those friends.
  • seeing content from a weak tie leads to a nearly tenfold increase in the likelihood that a person will share a link
  • In contrast, seeing information shared by a strong tie in News Feed makes people just six times as likely to share.
  • weak ties have the greatest potential to expose their friends to information that they would not have otherwise discovered.
  • though a person is more likely to share a single piece of information from one of their close contacts,
  • weak ties are collectively responsible for the majority of information spread. 
  • example (illustrated in Figure 5). Let's say a person has 100 contacts that are weak tie friends, and 10 that are strong tie friends.  Suppose the chance that you'll share something is very high for strong tie friends, say 50%
  • but the weak tie
  • sharing is only 15%
  • Therefore the amount of information spread due to weak and strong ties would be 100*0.15 = 15, and 10*0.50 = 5 respectively
  • so in total, people would end up sharing more from their weak tie friends.
  • because of their abundance, weak ties are primarily responsible for the majority of information spread on Facebook.
  • majority of people’s contacts are weak tie friends
  • We are exposed to and spread more information from our distant contacts than our close friends.
  • Since these distant contacts tend to be different from us, the bulk of information we consume and share comes from people with different perspectives
  • Our work
  • shows that online social networks can serve as an important medium for sharing new perspectives, products and world events.
  • very often, information does not "cascade" very far along the network.  This phenomenon has been observed in earlier research on Twitter in Everyone's an Influencer: Quantifying Influence on Twitter
  • and has been studied across other networks
  • by Sharad Goel and Duncan Watts at Yahoo! Research, NY.
  • person who click 'like' is in the weak ties group, and then who write a reply is in the strong ties group ?
  • share opinion , please

      Not necesarily but it's a good idea to assess FB behaviour.

    HULUSİ GÜVEL (Adana Milletvekili) Değerli arkadaşlar, Borçlar Kanunu Tasarısı vesilesiyle ülkemizde yaşanmakta olan sıkıntılar hakkında birkaç söz söylemek istiyorum. Ekonomik gidişat nedeniyle vatandaşlarımızın yaşadığı sorunlar günden güne artmaktadır.Karşılıksız çek borçları nedeniyle binlerce iş adamı ve esnaf bugün hapistedir. Bu insanlarımız aileleriyle birlikte büyük sıkıntı yaşamaktadır. Bu insanlar topluma karşı suç işlememişlerdir. Suç, ekonomik bir suçtur. Buna rağmen bu konuda bir girişim yapmayan Hükûmet bu sorunların büyümesine neden olmaktadır. Hapiste olduklarından, borçlarını ödeyememekten, alacaklılar da mağdur olmaktadır.

    Karşılıksız çek sorunları hala çözülemedi, yaşanan bunca Adaletsizlik ve Hukuksuzluğa rağmen çek yasası çıkmadığı gibi, iktidar partisi bir yıl süreyle erteleme işini bile becerememiş gözüküyor. Adalet Bakanı Sadullah Ergin'in bu soruna yaklaşım tarzınız biliyoruz ve gerek basında gerekse TBMM konuşmalarında gayet net ifadeyle " Çek Mağdurlarının sorunu bizim sorunumuzdur, nasip olur en yakın bir zamanda müjde veririz demiştir. Ekonomiden sorumlu Devlet Bakanı ve Başbakan Yardımcısı Sayın Ali Babacan, çek yasası ile ilgili olarak basına yaptığı açıklamalarda, kısa ve öz kelimelerle Karşılıksız Çek hapsinin hem Evrensel hukuk kurallarına, hemde Ticari yaşam kurallarına aykırılığına değinerek kesin ve net şekilde görüşünü belirtmiştir.
