Описание: The Second Edition of Situational Analysis: Grounded Theory After the Interpretive Turn offers an innovative extension of grounded theory useful in qualitative research projects that draws on interviews, observations, and visual, narrative, and historical discourse materials. To engage the dense complexities of real world situations, Situational Analysis (SA) braids together Strauss's ecological social worlds/arenas theory, Foucault's discourse analysis, and Deleuze and Guattari's rhizomes and assemblages. In SA, the situation itself becomes the fundamental unit of analysis. Using extensive examples, the authors discuss getting started, how to create three kinds of maps emphasizing differences and relationality (situational maps, social world/arena maps, and positional maps), the kinds of analytic work they accomplish, and how to write up the results centered on the distinctive strengths of the method. The book will serve as an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level students, as well as professional researchers and consultants from diverse backgrounds pursuing qualitative projects.

Описание: Grounded Practical Theory: Investigating Communication Problems provides readers with an introduction to grounded practical theory (GPT), a framework for doing research about the problems people encounter when they engage in particular communicative practices, techniques for managing those problems, and normative ideas for how to communicate wisely in situations that involve tensions and dilemmas.
Readers learn about the philosophy behind GPT and how its application can strengthen and improve existing communication practices. They review a detailed road map and practical examples for conducting GPT research, including how to analyze discourse. They also learn how past researchers have creatively adapted GPT to study and reconstruct a variety of communicative practices. The text compares GPT with other qualitative approaches and offers guidance for how to choose among different methods. The book concludes with considerations of how GPT may be used in the future.
Grounded Practical Theory is an ideal book for graduate-level courses in qualitative methods or communication theory and an excellent resource for practicing communication scholars and researchers.
Описание: Knowledge Discovery in the Social Sciences helps readers find valid, meaningful, and useful information. It is written for researchers and data analysts as well as students who have no prior experience in statistics or computer science. Suitable for a variety of classes--including upper-division courses for undergraduates, introductory courses for graduate students, and courses in data management and advanced statistical methods--the book guides readers in the application of data mining techniques and illustrates the significance of newly discovered knowledge.
Readers will learn to: - appreciate the role of data mining in scientific research - develop an understanding of fundamental concepts of data mining and knowledge discovery - use software to carry out data mining tasks - select and assess appropriate models to ensure findings are valid and meaningful - develop basic skills in data preparation, data mining, model selection, and validation - apply concepts with end-of-chapter exercises and review summaries

Описание: This completely updated second edition includes case studies and a focus on the business of system operations. The broad range of actions under system operations from transmission to distribution are explored. The underpinnings of electric systems operations are highlighted, with an introduction to utilities and power systems. It offers a thorough definition of system operations, identifying and explaining the various systems that support this function and how they integrate into the utility.The book presents a thorough definition of system operations, identifying and explaining the various systems that support this function and how they integrate into the utility. The business perspective on electric systems operation, and how critical this area is to a utility`s ability to provide reliable power to customers is detailed. Readers discover how a utility`s network operation is a key contributor to the viable sustainment of its business. The book presents the convergence of the systems used in the grid operations of today and addresses the emerging needs of the smart grid operations of tomorrow. Readers discover how a utility`s network operation is a key contributor to the viable sustainment of its business, as well as learn how system operations help to ensure the right levels of safety, reliability and efficiency in everything that relates to transmission and distribution grid management.

Описание: This volume offers selected papers exploring issues arising from scientific discovery in the social sciences. It features a range of disciplines including behavioural sciences, computer science, finance, and statistics with an emphasis on philosophy.The first of the three parts examines methods of social scientific discovery. Chapters investigate the nature of causal analysis, philosophical issues around scale development in behavioural science research, imagination in social scientific practice, and relationships between paradigms of inquiry and scientific fraud. The next part considers the practice of social science discovery. Chapters discuss the lack of genuine scientific discovery in finance where hypotheses concern the cheapness of securities, the logic of scientific discovery in macroeconomics, and the nature of that what discovery with the Solidarity movement as a case study. The final part covers formalising theories in social science. Chapters analyse the abstract model theory of institutions as a way of representing the structure of scientific theories, the semi-automatic generation of cognitive science theories, and computational process models in the social sciences.The volume offers a unique perspective on scientific discovery in the social sciences. It will engage scholars and students with a multidisciplinary interest in the philosophy of science and social science.
