Therefore, we propose an approach that compares the output of a fitted (linear) model from the observed interaction data to that generated by an assumed agent-based null model. This allows us to discover, for example, the extent to which the structure of social interactions differs from that of random interactions. Moreover, we provide network visualisations that identify the extent of ingroup favouritism and reciprocity as well as particular individuals whose behaviour differs markedly from the norm. We specifically consider experimental data collected via the novel Virtual Interaction APPLication (VIAPPL). We find that ingroup favouritism and reciprocity are present in social interactions observed on this platform, and that these behaviours strengthen over time. Note that, while our proposed methodology was developed with VIAPPL in mind, its potential usage extends to any type of social interaction data.}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-023-32295-z}, }

They are recommended by experts, trusted by the majority of people, and promoted by expensive health campaigns. Even so, people with neutral attitudes are more persuaded by people holding anti-vaccine than pro-vaccine attitudes. Our analysis of vaccine-related attitudes in more than 140 countries makes sense of this paradox by including approaches from social influence. Specifically, we show that neutral people are positioned closer to anti- than to pro-vaccine people in the opinion space, and therefore more persuadable by them. We use dynamic social simulations seeded with vaccine survey data, to show how this effect results in a drift towards anti-vaccine opinions. Linking this analysis to data from two other multi-country datasets, we found that countries in which the pro-vaccine people are less associated to the neutrals (and so less able to influence them) exhibit lower vaccination rates and stronger increase in distrust. We conclude our paper by showing how taking social influence into account in vaccine-related policy-making can possibly reduce waves of distrust towards vaccination.}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-022-10069-3}, refid = {Carpentras2022}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-10069-3}, }

We make use of these network projections to identify the groups reliably through community detection algorithms and to examine social-identity-based polarisation. Our goal is to present a method for revealing polarisation in attitudinal surveys. This method can be broken down into the following steps: data preparation, construction of similarity-based networks, algorithmic identification of opinion-based groups, and identification of important items for community structure. We examine the method's performance and possible scope through applying it to empirical data and to a broad range of synthetic data sets. The empirical data application points out possible conclusions (i.e., social-identity polarization), whereas the synthetic data sets marks out the method's boundaries. Next to an application example on political attitude survey, our results suggest that the method works for various surveys but is also moderated by the efficacy of the community detection algorithms. Concerning the identification of opinion-based groups, we provide a solid method to rank the item's influence on group formation and as a group identifier. We discuss how this network approach for identifying polarization can classify non-overlapping opinion-based groups even in the absence of extreme opinions.}, archiveprefix = {arXiv}, eprint = {2104.14427}, file = {:http\://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.14427v3:PDF}, keywords = {physics.soc-ph, 90C35}, primaryclass = {physics.soc-ph}, url = {https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.14427}, }

[Bibtex]@Article{Carpentras2021, author = {Dino Carpentras and Michael Quayle}, title = {The sensitivity of the Deffuant model to measurement error}, year = {2021-Preprint}, month = jun, abstract = {Opinion dynamics models have an enormous potential for studying current phenomena such as vaccine hesitancy. Unfortunately, to date, most of the models have little to no empirical validation. One major problem in testing these models against real-world data relates to the difficulties in measuring opinions in ways that map directly to representations in models. Indeed, this kind of measurement is complex in nature and presents more types of measurement error than just classical random noise. Thus, it is crucial to know how these different error types may affect the model's predictions. In this work, we analyze this relationship in the Deffuant model. Starting from the psychometrics literature, we first discuss how opinion measurements are affected by three types of errors: random noise, binning, and distortions (i.e. uneven intervals between scale points). While the first two are known to most of the scientific community, the third one is mostly unknown outside psychometrics. Because of that, we highlight the nature and peculiarities of each of these measurement errors. By simulating these types of error, we show that the Deffuant model is robust to binning but not to noise and distortions. Indeed, if a scale has 4 or more points (like most self-report scales), binning has almost no effect on the final predictions. However, prediction error increases almost linearly with random noise, up to a maximum error of 40%. After reaching this value, increasing the amount of noise does not worsen the prediction. Distortions are most problematic, reaching a maximum prediction error of 80%. Up to now most of the research focused on the properties of the models without analyzing the types of data they may be used with. Here we show that when studying a model, we should also analyze its robustness to these types of measurement error.}, archiveprefix = {arXiv}, eprint = {2106.04328}, file = {:http\://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.04328v1:PDF}, keywords = {physics.soc-ph}, primaryclass = {physics.soc-ph}, }

Intensive research has been carried out on these models, especially exploring the different rules and topologies, which can be considered two degrees of freedom of these models. In this paper we introduce what can be considered a third degree of freedom. Since it is not possible to directly access someone's opinions without measuring them, we always need to choose a way to transform real world opinions (e.g. being anti-Trump) into numbers. However, the properties of this transformation are usually not discussed in opinion dynamics literature. For example, it would be fundamental to know if this transformation of opinions into numbers should be unique, or if several are possible; and in the latter case, how the choice of the scale would affect the model dynamics. In this article we explore this question by using the knowledge developed in psychometrics. This field has been studying how to transform psychological constructs (such as opinions) into numbers for more than 100 years. We start by introducing this phenomenon by looking at a simple example in opinion dynamics. Then we provide the necessary mathematical background and analyze three opinion dynamics models introduced by Hegselmann and Krause. Finally, we test the models using agent-based simulations both in the case of perfect scales (infinite precision) and in the case of real world scales. Both in the theoretical analysis and in the simulations, we show how the choice of the scale (even in the case of perfect accuracy and precision) can strongly change the model's dynamics. Indeed, by choosing a different scale it is possible to (1) find different numbers of final opinion clusters, (2) change the mean value of the final opinion distribution up to a change of $\pm 100 \%$ and (3) even transform one model into another.}, date = {2020-10-09}, eprint = {2010.04788}, eprintclass = {physics.soc-ph}, eprinttype = {arXiv}, file = {:http\://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.04788v1:PDF}, keywords = {physics.soc-ph, math.DS, 68Q80}, url = {https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.04788}, }

This paper uses bibliometric techniques to explore international collaborations in the Society’s core activities, namely the journal Political Psychology and annual meetings. We explore how authors from different regions of the world are interconnected through co-authorship, using country information extracted from authors’ affiliation and coded as WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialised, Rich and Democratic) or non-WEIRD. Study 1 analyzed co-authorship in the Society’s journal Political Psychology from 1985-2014 (30 years), with 1151 authors from 42 countries and 1337 co-authorship ties between them. Study 2 mapped the co-authorship relationships for annual meetings for which documentation was available, eventually collecting data from 2006-2014 (eight years). In total, 4,260 authors from 74 countries were represented, with 6,884 collaborative ties. Annual meetings reflected more international collaboration than the journal on several dimensions, including a large internationally connected giant component of collaborating authors evident in annual meetings, but not the journal. In annual meetings, there were more collaborations between WEIRD and non-WEIRD authors. However, even at annual meetings, deep internationalization involving non-WEIRD authors was rare, and the activities of the Society primarily represent academics from WEIRD countries, particularly the USA.}, doi = {10.1111/pops.12656}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1111/pops.12656}, }

A growing number of primary schools are committing resources to external providers for partial delivery of the PE curriculum. Some researchers (Evans and Davies [2014; 2015]. “Neoliberal Freedoms, Privatisation and the Future of Physical Education.” Sport, Education and Society 20 (1): 10–26. doi:10.1080/13573322.2014.918878; Powell [2015]. “Assembling the Privatisation of Physical Education and the ‘Inexpert’ Teacher.” Sport, Education and Society 20 (1): 73–88. doi:10.1080/13573322.2014.941796) suggest the use of external providers in primary PE represents an increasing privatisation of the public education system. Thus, privatisation of PE raises questions about the future purpose, quality, and content of the subject. The goal of this paper is to identify the most common forms of external provision in support of PE in a small cohort primary schools. Network analysis was used to achieve a graphical representation of primary schools/external provision. Web pages of primary schools yielded data that allowed the creation of a social network analysis of external provision for 67 primary schools selected from the 2015/2016 list of Delivery of Equality of Opportunity in Schools (DEIS) programme. Results highlight that the most common forms of PE external provision in Irish primary schools are Gaelic Games (GAA), swimming, and dance and describe the network relationships between external provision types. Discussion provides possible reasons to justify the external provision trend for primary PE in Ireland.}, doi = {10.1080/03323315.2020.1730218}, file = {:Mangione2020_Mapping_the_landscape_of_PE_external_provision.pdf:PDF}, }

Our method enables us to identify participants whose behaviour is markedly different from the norm.

Survey data were collected from one international (N = 159) and three South African samples (Ns = 86, 100, 161) of women. Results show that although women value patriarchal ideals for masculinity, agentic and communal versions of masculinity are valued differently across contexts. Specifically, traditional agentic versions of masculinity were most valued in the contexts most important to the long-term production of viable identity (family/romance and work). It was only in friendship that non-patriarchal communal masculinity was consistently idealized over traditional agentic masculinity. The results are discussed in relation to hegemonic masculinity (HM) and system justification theory (SJT). Congruent with SJT, women idealized versions of masculinity that may not be in their own or their group's best interests, but in line with HM, the results emphasized the fluidity of masculinity and that the same individual can simultaneously idealize different versions of masculinity depending on the context. Because stereotypes are both explanations for the status quo and warrants for behaving in one way or another, these collective ideals for masculinity and contextual boundaries may be important obstacles to achieving gender equity.}, doi = {10.1007/s11199-017-0772-9}, file = {:Quayle2018_WomensIdealsMasculinity.pdf:PDF;:Quayle2018_WomensIdealsMasculinity.pdf:PDF;:Quayle2018_WomensIdealsMasculinity-prepub_final.pdf:PDF}, owner = {Mike.quayle}, timestamp = {2017.05.09}, url = {https://michaelquayle.net/pubs/Quayle2018_WomensIdealsMasculinity-prepub_final.pdf}, }

This article is based on the notion that citizens should be informed about what government is or does (transparency) and provided with sufficient opportunities to influence this (public participation). Both of these depend on the provision of reliable information before, during and after policy consultation. The article explores how transparency may be operationalised through access to information and how this is implemented in South Africa through the Promotion of Access to Information Act. It then focuses on policy consultation as a mechanism for government transparency that can only function adequately if the public has access to information concerning both the policy and the consultation process. This case study documents is an attempt to obtain records concerning public consultation on mental health policy from a number of South African government departments. Findings suggest that access to information is variably applied across national and provincial Departments of Health, and that legislation regarding the transparency of policy consultations appears contradictory. Based on these experiences, we reflect on potential tensions between the accountability and transparency functions of access to information and public participation in policy making (vis-à-vis policy consultation), and how these tensions can obstruct public participation. We recommend that guidelines be established regarding systemic procedures for taking and keeping records on public consultations.}, file = {:Marais2017 - The role of access to information in enabling transparency and public participation in governance - a case study of access to policy consultation records in South Africa.pdf:PDF}, language = {English}, owner = {MQ}, publisher = {African Consortium of Public Administration (ACPA)}, timestamp = {2017-06-19}, type = {Journal Article}, url = {https://journals.co.za/content/journal/10520/EJC-754deef6f}, }

The appropriate standards of care and of prevention in HIV vaccine trials are complex and debated issues and ethical guidelines offer some direction. However, there has been limited empirical exploration of South African stakeholders' perspectives on ethical guidance related to prevention and care in HIV vaccine trials.METHODS:Site staff, Community Advisory Board members and Research Ethics Committee members involved with current HIV vaccine trials in South Africa were invited to participate in an exploration of their views. A questionnaire listed 10 care and 10 prevention recommendations drawn from two widely available sets of ethical guidelines for biomedical HIV prevention trials. Respondents (n=98) rated each recommendation on five dimensions: "Familiarity with", "Ease of Understanding", "Ease of Implementing", "Perceived Protection", and "Agreement with" each ethical recommendation. The ratings were used to describe stakeholder perspectives on dimensions for each recommendation. Dimension ratings were averaged across the five dimensions and used as an indication of overall merit for each recommendation. Differences were explored across dimensions, between care-oriented and prevention-oriented recommendations, and between stakeholder groups.RESULTS:Both care and prevention recommendations were rated highly overall, with median ratings well above the scale midpoint. In general, informed consent recommendations were most positively rated. Care-related recommendations were rated significantly more positively than prevention-related recommendations, with the five lowest-rated recommendations being prevention-related. The most problematic dimension across all recommendations was "Ease of Implementing," and the least problematic was "Agreement with," suggesting the most pressing stakeholder concerns are practical rather than theoretical; that is, respondents agree with but see barriers to the attainment of these recommendations.CONCLUSIONS:We propose that prevention recommendations be prioritized for refinement, especially those assigned bottom-ranking scores for "Ease of Implementing", and/ or "Ease of Understanding" in order to assist vaccine stakeholders to better comprehend and implement these recommendations. Further qualitative research could also assist to better understand nuances in stakeholder reservations about implementing such recommendations.}, doi = {10.1186/1472-6939-15-51}, file = {:Moorehouse2014_as_published.pdf:PDF}, owner = {psycho}, timestamp = {2014.08.15}, url = {http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.790.152&rep=rep1&type=pdf}, }

It is now emerging that even extended contact, or the mere knowledge that an ingroup member has a close relationship with an outgroup member, can lead to more positive intergroup attitudes. However, in South African society optimal contact is uncommon because most social spaces and structures are governed by strong norms of microsegregation that ensure that genuine optimal contact is uncommon. Given that multiracial families exemplify most features of optimal contact while radically challenging social norms of segregation, they may be important nodes for effective prejudice-reducing contact in South African society. This exploratory study investigated the extent to which general contact with people of other races, direct contact with multiracial families (i.e. personally knowing a member of a multiracial family), and extended contact with multiracial families (i.e. knowing someone who knows a member of a multiracial family) predicted reduced prejudice, reconciliatory race-policy attitudes and reduced intergroup threat. The results show that all three forms of contact predicted significantly reduced prejudice and that direct contact with multiracial families significantly predicted reduced prejudice over and above the effect of general interracial contact. Therefore we argue that contact researchers should consider more carefully whether normatively supported contact or radically norm-violating forms of contact optimally disrupt practices of microsegregation. Additionally, we argue that multiracial romantic relationships and families deserve increased attention and support as important nodes of prejudice reduction in South African society. However, general contact was also associated with reduced support for race-based social policies which supports the argument that the prejudice-reducing effects of interracial contact may be at least partially offset by other effects that may hinder broader social change.}, doi = {10.1177/008124631104100412}, file = {:duToit2011_FinalPublished.pdf:PDF}, owner = {psycho}, timestamp = {2011.12.12}, url = {https://michaelquayle.net/pubs/duToit%26Quayle2011_preprintproofs.pdf}, }

This dissertation aimed to re-imagine STB in light of social identity theory. Ten studies were undertaken that each manipulated status and either identifiability, conflict or permeability and explored the effects on the performance of the Ravens Advanced Progressive Matrices. Additional identity and socio-structural constructs were also measured and explored, including stability, legitimacy and ingroup identification. The results showed that STB is not simply “activated” or “deactivated” when stereotypes become relevant to task performance. On the contrary, the specific features of identity, the contextual features of the social environment in which the identity performance takes place, and the performer’s strategic engagement with their identity resources and liabilities are important features of how STB impacts on performance, and how it is sometimes resisted and overturned by experimental subjects. Indeed, performance was generally not predictable on the basis of stereotype activation until resistance to the negative or positive status manipulations were also accounted for. Although the STB literature is tightly focused on the case of negative stereotypes undermining performance, incongruent effects in which negative stereotypes enhance performance and positive stereotypes undermine it have also been reported. In the present studies incongruent STB effects were frequently observed. Underperformance in boost conditions was most consistently predicted by perceived intergroup conflict, while enhanced performance under threat was consistently predicted by perceived group boundary permeability. Additionally, underperformance in boost conditions was often a result of ‘slipstreaming’ rather than ‘choking under pressure,’ since participants were evidently counting on their generally secure identity in the experimental context to buffer poor performance on the experimental task. Improved performance in threat conditions was most likely when participants perceived themselves to be representatives of their group and when they believed that their improved performance would make a difference for their own reputation or the reputation of their group. These findings challenge the common image of the passive subject in the STB literature and, instead, suggest that STB effects are an outcome of situated identity performance. This model of STB effects understands task-performance in a specific performance context as an active and strategic expression of situated identity oriented not only to the social features of the performance context (as argued by most SIT theorists), but also to the their own reading of that context, their total identity liabilities and resources (including individual ability and alternative identities) and their strategic motivations in the context.}, file = {Quayle2011_PhD.pdf:Quayle2011_PhD.pdf:PDF}, owner = {User}, timestamp = {2011.11.21}, url = {https://researchspace.ukzn.ac.za/handle/10413/5011}, }

While there is some speculation that research in developing countries poses special ethical challenges, overall no issues were identified that have not been anticipated in international guidance, literature and popular frameworks.

While they advocated nonhegemonic ‘‘nice guy’’ masculinities in social and work contexts, they appealed strongly to ‘‘hegemonic’’ or traditional masculine ideals in romantic and family contexts.

We report the results of two random national telephone surveys which tested a theoretically based model of the predictors of policy support in post-apartheid South Africa. The results provided limited support for Blumer's group position model. Compensatory and preferential treatment policies had different underlying predictors: Violated entitlement featured in the models of compensatory policy attitudes, but not preferential treatment policy attitudes, where threat was the strongest predictor. In addition to threat and violated entitlement, policy attitudes among the black sample were related to ingroup identification but those of the white sample were related to prejudice. The effects of these variables were in the opposite directions for the two samples: Policy support was associated with strong ingroup identification and high levels of threat among the black sample (i.e. prospective beneficiaries of the transformation policies), but with low levels of prejudice and threat among the white sample. We conclude by considering the implications that these findings have for social change programs.

Universities in South Africa face the challenge of redressing past (and continuing) inequalities in higher education by increasing accessibility to previously (and currently) disadvantaged students. One means of doing so is through 'access' or 'bridging' programmes. This article explores successful students' perceptions of one such programme at the University of KwaZulu- Natal by means of qualitative focus group interviews. This retrospective evaluation of the programme explores students' perspectives on the extent to which the Access Programme (AP) has 'bridged the gap' between secondary and tertiary education as well as any potential negative outcomes generated by the programme, e.g. perceptions of stigma. Results indicate that (1) interviewed students generally perceived the programme as beneficial and legitimate in preparing them for their degree studies, (2) the racial homogeneity and the isolation of AP students from mainstream students have resulted in some negative outcomes such as perceptions of stigmatisation and inferiority and (3) students enrolled in the programme and the programme management may have quite different perceptions of the nature of the 'articulation gap' that the programme aims to address.

It was found, first, that the nature of a failure was negotiated between participants rather than being simply technically evident. Failure was defined from users' perspectives, in relation to what they were trying to achieve, rather than according to technical parameters. Secondly, negotiations of failure had social consequences for both users and help-desk consultants. Both avoided being seen as incompetent and actively defended their social standing. Thirdly, such social issues sometimes took precedence over technical and practical ones. The implications for HCI theorists and practitioners are twofold: firstly, failure should be accepted as a regular part of computer use in which human-computer interaction continues even though the interface may be non-functional. Secondly, the management of failure could be better addressed if technicians were trained in social as well as technical intervention skills.}, doi = {DOI: 10.1016/j.intcom.2006.03.003}, file = {:Quayle&Durrheim-INTCOM-Final.pdf:PDF}, keywords = {HCI}, owner = {ADMIN}, timestamp = {2010.03.10}, url = {https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Michael_Quayle/publication/220055017_When_the_chips_are_down_Social_and_technical_aspects_of_computer_failure_and_repair/links/00463523ad3b613327000000.pdf}, }
