Citations in the corpus
- Persistent poverty and informal credit (2011, background): “…added control for unobserved heterogeneity across individuals indeed matters to our results with respect 15An alternative way of modeling the error term is to assume that the personal network is a complex attribute of the individual and that relations are nested within individuals (Valente, 2005).”
- Social Networks and Causal Inference (2013, background): “Moreover, many of these are not interested in making causal inference about either network effects or effects on networks but are focused on using networks as a medium to facilitate the implementation of interventions (Valente 2005).”
- Robustness and resilience of complex networks (2024, unknown): “…resilience at a societal level: it is well known that information spreading can represent a serious threat to public health systems, polarize debates and undermine public trust in democratic institutions 167,168 , but spreading can also have positive impacts such as diffusing innovations 166,169 .”
- Norm Perception as a Vehicle for Social Change (2016, background): “Researchers have proposed various models for how individual-level interventions might scale to a community level, via a change in a critical proportion of individuals or following a certain degree of change among community members (e.g., Valente, 2005).”
- Network Effects and Personal Influences: The Diffusion of an Online Social Network (2011, methodology): “Although various models have been developed to address this call (e.g., Goldenberg, Libai, and Muller 2001, 2002; Shaikh, Rangaswamy, and Balakrishnan 2005; for a review, see Valente 2005), these models could only be tested on aggregate data.”
