Teaching social network analysis to brilliant doctoral students at Oxford last term. Networks shape how ideas spread, how power operates, how we find new jobs. Two days of graph theory, R coding, and thinking relationally about the social world. 🧵📊 @ox.ac.uk @socsci.ox.ac.uk

From the cost of childcare to the housing crisis, there’s no shortage of explanations for the dramatic global fall in the number of babies being born. These analyses, though, are all missing something, says cognitive and evolutionary anthropologist Paula Sheppard

Went to this seminar. Panel: Damian Hinds MP, Stella Creasy MP, Jonathan Hall KC, and Mitali Mukherjee @mitalilive.bsky.social was the voice that consistently brought the conversation back to evidence—genuinely stood out on a panel that otherwise struggled to rise above the political noise.

Some coverage of Giving Evidence's new report about Prince Andrew's #charity patronages claims that we found "a rise in profits". The concept of profit is normally meaningless in relation to charities: we looked at revenue. www.skynews.com.au/lifestyle/ce...

Major sign Prince Andrew still ‘toxic’ despite attempts at comeback

Prince Andrew has been left red faced after several charities he once supported as patron saw a rise in profits after he stepped down from royal duties.

Do Royals as patrons help charities raise money? We set out to test that using difference-in-differences analysis. Our findings: Prince Andrew’s patronage had no detectable effect on charities’ revenue. Full details here 👉

With *Prince Andrew*'s step back, his charity patronages ended abruptly. We seized this rare 'natural experiment' to investigate if royal patronage measurably impacts charity revenue. Our findings are coming very soon: stay tuned!

Why does 25% AfD among young men spark a thousand "what is going on with young men?" posts yet Die Linke 34% among young women generates...nothing at all? Yes, young men voting for the radical right is an important phenomenon. But so is young women going rad left *at even higher rates*.
