Ethnic Diversity, Segregation, and Ethnocentric Trust in Africa
Ethnic diversity is generally associated with less social capital and lower levels of trust. However, most empirical evidence for this relationship is focused on generalized trust, rather than more theoretically appropriate measures of groupbased trust. This paper instead evaluates the relationship between ethnic diversity – at both national and local levels – and the degree to which coethnics ...
متن کاملThe link between segregation and phylogenetic diversity.
We derive an invertible transform linking two widely used measures of species diversity: phylogenetic diversity and the expected proportions of segregating (non-constant) sites. We assume a bi-allelic (two-state), symmetric, finite site model of substitution. Like the Hadamard transform of Hendy and Penny, the transform can be expressed independently of the underlying phylogeny. Our results bri...
متن کاملSegregation in social networks based on acquaintanceship and trust.
Using 2006 General Social Survey data, the authors compare levels of segregation by race and along other dimensions of potential social cleavage in the contemporary United States. Americans are not as isolated as the most extreme recent estimates suggest. However, hopes that "bridging" social capital is more common in broader acquaintanceship networks than in core networks are not supported. In...
متن کاملMulti-Way Multi-Group Segregation and Diversity Indices
BACKGROUND How can we compute a segregation or diversity index from a three-way or multi-way contingency table, where each variable can take on an arbitrary finite number of values and where the index takes values between zero and one? Previous methods only exist for two-way contingency tables or dichotomous variables. A prototypical three-way case is the segregation index of a set of industrie...
متن کاملReputation-based Trust Evaluations through Diversity
Trust and reputation are significant components in open dynamic systems for making informed and reliable decisions. State-of-theart trust models that exploit reputational evidence generally rely on reports from as many sources as possible. Situations exist, however, where seeking evidence from all possible sources is unrealistic. This is particularly the case in resource-constrained environment...
