General Intelligence (g), ACT Scores, and Theory of Mind: (ACT)g Predicts Limited Variance Among Theory of Mind Tests

This study is the first to examine relations between general intelligence (g), non-g factors, and theory of mind (ToM) using structural equation modeling with multiple indicators of g and ToM. g was based on the subtests of the ACT, a college …

Do-it-yourself networks: a novel method of generating weighted networks

© 2017 The Authors. Network theory is finding applications in the life and social sciences for ecology, epidemiology, finance and social– ecological systems. While there aremethods to generate specific types of networks, the broad literature is …

Using agent-based models to compare behavioral theories on experimental data: Application for irrigation games

Behavioral experiments have demonstrated that people do cooperate in commons dilemmas. There are alternative theories that are proposed to explain the data. We will use agent-based models to compare alternative behavioral theories on a series of …

Social–ecological network analysis of scale mismatches in estuary watershed restoration

Resource management boundaries seldom align with environmental systems, which can lead to social and ecological problems. Mapping and analyzing how resource management organizations in different areas collaborate can provide vital information to help …

The emergence of an environmental governance network: the case of the Arizona borderlands

Across the country, government agencies increasingly collaborate with non-governmental actors on environmental dilemmas to gain access to resources, expertise, and local knowledge; to mitigate conflict; and to share risks in a changing environmental …

Who collaborates and why: Assessment and diagnostic of governance network integration for salmon restoration in Puget Sound, USA

Governance silos are settings in which different organizations work in isolation and avoid sharing information and strategies. Siloes are a fundamental challenge for environmental planning and problem solving, which generally requires collaboration. …

Multiplex social ecological network analysis reveals how social changes affect community robustness more than resource depletion

Network analysis provides a powerful tool to analyze complex influences of social and ecological structures on community and household dynamics. Most network studies of social–ecological systems use simple, undirected, unweighted networks. We analyze …

An iterative approach to case study analysis: insights from qualitative analysis of quantitative inconsistencies

Large-N comparative studies have helped common pool resource scholars gain general insights into the factors that influence collective action and governance outcomes. However, these studies are often limited by missing data, and suffer from the …

Challenges and opportunities in coding the commons: problems, procedures, and potential solutions in large-N comparative case studies

On-going efforts to understand the dynamics of coupled social-ecological (or more broadly, coupled infrastructure) systems and common pool resources have led to the generation of numerous datasets based on a large number of case studies. This data …
