New paper out!. Check out this new paper great scholars @lanukim (leading the study) and Sebastian Mujoz-Najar Galvez. We innovatively link observed US faculty salaries to gender and many indicators of performance, rank, etc. & interdisciplinarity.

De @volkskrant schreef een stuk over ons onderzoek naar sociale contacten en haar scheidslijnen! . Onderzoek met Beate Volker, @RenseC, en Frank van Tubergen.

You can find the paper here: You can find the replication website to the paper here: . (PS: fitting that this gets out while I'm currently at the Sunbelt conference of the International Network of Social Network Analysis!).

Additionally, we find a pretty strong presence for gender and educational homogeneity. These findings have important implications for Dutch social structure as to who is at risk to become socially isolated and as to where social barriers between groups exist.

We find fascinating patterns where average network size across a representative set respondents in the Netherlands is about 518 people. But more importantly, it decreases with age, unemployment, lower income, lower house values, lower education, and fewer people in a household.

This is a project that came out of our earlier popular publication at Quest where they asked us similar questions!.

In this paper we use computational methods (for insiders, specifically the Network Scale-Up Method) to calculate both network size and its determinants, as well as network homogeneity and its determinants.

Thrilled to share my latest publication in the journal Social Networks, together with Beate Völker (lead), Rense Corten, and Frank van Tubergen.

After a pretty gruesome train ride, finally arrived in Paris for #sunbelt #sunbelt2025. Can’t wait to hear about all the amazing network studies. Shoot me a message if you want to meet or catch up!.

This was such a cool, interdisciplinary collaboration and such an opportunity to work with colleagues-that-became-friends when we were still at Stanford. The study combines features I deem essential: working across disciplines, cool data linkages, important social sci questions.

Yet, a gender pay gap persists at the expense of women faculty even when accounting for all of these indicators. Especially negotiated pay on top of faculty base salaries is in the range of a significant 16K per year that women faculty earn less than men.
