Spatial Regression Models for the Social Sciences de Guangqing Chi

Spatial Regression Models for the Social Sciences: Advanced Quantitative Techniques in the Social Sciences, cartea 14

Autor Guangqing Chi, Jun Zhu
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iun 2019
Providing comprehensive coverage of spatial regression methods, this text explains what each method is and when and how to apply it, connecting concepts to social science research topics. Avoiding mathematical formulas and symbols as much as possible, the book introduces the methods in an easy-to-follow manner, providing comprehensive coverage and using the same social science example throughout to demonstrate the applications of each method and what the results can tell us.

Recenzii

“This is an important book bringing together a family of related statistical measures and explaining them in a coherent way. Written by leading researchers in the field, it uses a consistent spatial example and applies and explains various measures within a unifying frame to aid in understanding by readers. As real-time spatial data becomes increasingly prevalent, the need for analysts to accurately and meaningfully interpret this data is rapidly growing."
“The field of spatial regression has grown rapidly over the last decade. This book goes a long way toward filling a gap by providing students and practitioners with a useful text that is written at a level that should make it broadly accessible.”
“This is an exceptionally well-written text on spatial data analysis tailored for social science research. It deals with spatial thinking and regression analysis with remarkable depth and expertise in a comprehensive and easy-to-follow manner. It is a primer that should be on every social scientist's shelf.”
“This introductory book offers a full overview of the different ways in which a standard linear regression model can be extended to contain spatial effects.”

“Spatial data science is an evolving field. This is a valuable book that introduces to students, researchers, and faculty the foundation of spatial statistics and offers tremendous insights on how to statistically analyze geo-spatial data. Anyone working geo-data must read this book if they want accurate and unbiased research findings.”

the book’s main strength is its efficiency, organization, and methodical approach to explaining many concepts in spatial regression. It does not necessarily progress in concept difficulty nor in concept importance, but mixes both to form a coherent volume that is a strong reference for both looking up terms as a “refresher” and as a guide to diversifying one’s own spatial regression techniques for a comparative analysis

Notă biografică

Dr. Guangqing Chi is Associate Professor of Rural Sociology and Demography with courtesy appointments in Department of Sociology and Criminology and Department of Public Health Sciences at The Pennsylvania State University. He also serves as Director of the Computational and Spatial Analysis Core of the Social Science Research Institute and Population Research Institute. Dr. Chi is an environmental demographer. His research examines the interactions between population change and the built and natural environments. He pursues his research program within interwoven research projects on climate change, land use, and community resilience, with an emphasis on environmental migration and critical infrastructure/transportation and population change within the smart cities framework. Most recently, Dr. Chi has applied his expertise in big data to study issues of generalizability and reproducibility of Twitter data for population and social science research. He also studies environmental migration, including projects on coupled migrant-pasture systems in Central Asia, permafrost erosion and coastal communities, and ecological migration in China. Dr. Chi¿s research has been supported through grants from national and state agencies, including the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and U.S. Department of Transportation. He has published about 50 articles in peer-reviewed journals. His research on gasoline prices and traffic safety has been highlighted more than 2,000 times by various news media outlets, such as National Public Radio andHuffington Post.
