Status, network, and structure
theory development in group processes
by Jacek Szmatka and Berger, Joseph
The overall aim of the book is to provide models for researchers struggling to develop, construct, and integrate coherent sociological theory and knowledge.
The papers are grouped around three themes: (1) the problem of theory construction in sociology, including what is meant by "theory" and the methods of testing it, particularly empirical testing; (2) the extension and elaboration of existing theories of group processes, notably in the study of status, sentiment, and the comparison process; and (3) the theoretical issues at the intersection of social structures, the pattern of connection in social networks, and the process of rational choice.
