New in @socprobsjournal.bsky.social w/ @estelabdiaz.bsky.social: the rapid growth of the admissions consulting industry has raised questions about inequality, privilege, and merit.

Great to see @greermellon.bsky.social with the lead article in the latest ASR. And there’s good news: even in polarized times, school boards are selecting superintendents based on perceived competence and interpersonal skills, not party affiliation. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Now out in Social Networks Network analysis aspires to be “anticategorical,” yet its basic units—relationships—are usually readily categorized ('friendship,' 'love'). Thus, a nontrivial cultural typification is asserted in the very building blocks of most network analyses. doi.org/10.1016/j.so...

I’m delighted to share that the August 2025 special issue of Sociological Methods & Research on Generative AI is out now. Along with my co-editor, Daniel Karell, we put together this issue to build on the conference we organized last year. Here's a thread on each of the ten papers:

The policy takeaway? Beyond raising public insurance reimbursement, we need geographically-sensitive interventions that account for the way places shape the balance between economic pressures and social responsibility. Read here: academic.oup.com/sf/advance-a... or DM if blocked by paywall

Limits to helping in a helping profession: the social context of psychiatrist opt-out from public insurance

Abstract. In the United States, most mental health services are provided by independent helping professionals, individually deciding where to operate, whom

In the end, the same psychiatrist will likely make different choices on public insurance participation or opt-out depending on the social environment where they are embedded. These local structures modulate individual decision-making above and beyond individual values 👇

In places with multiple psychiatrists (i.e., not monopolies), they tend to coordinate rather than compete. This type of market segmentation means that every location studied had at least some public insurance access, making coverage wide (if very thin) 👇

Psychiatrists respond to patient needs—but more strongly when the economic incentives align. In areas with more Medicaid pts., psychiatrists are likelier to accept Medicaid. This is not true for Medicare, where pts. (older, but many not necessarily poor) can more often afford to pay for care 👇

I analyzed data about all Georgia psychiatrists & ran a "secret shopper" audit to see how social geography shapes tensions between markets and morals. In rural areas, the same conditions that concentrate responsibility also create market monopolies—pulling psychiatrists in polar directions 👇

Georgia ranks dead last in mental health affordability. Almost 50% of psychiatrists opt out of Medicaid/Medicare. How do psychiatrists navigate the tension between helping those in need and the economic incentives of a privatized healthcare system? My new Social Forces paper examines this 🧵👇
