Opportunities and Challenges for Computational Social Science Methods, Enes Abanoz, Editör, IGI Global, Pennsylvania, ss.1-22, 2022
Computational social science is regarded as a research method that provides
an unprecedented breadth and depth of data to classify and analyze how human
interaction occurs and provide a different dimension to studies of collective
human behavior. Computational social science refers to computational methods
and approaches to study the social sciences, particularly incorporating big
data, social network analysis, social media content, and spatial data. The
outcomes of computational approaches should help overcome the limitations
of existing theory in the field. This chapter focuses on the term computational
approach and discusses the opportunities and challenges in the social sciences.
