商品描述

The main purpose of this book is not only to present recent studies and advances in the field of social science research, but also to stimulate discussion on related practical issues concerning statistics, mathematics, and economics. Accordingly, a broad range of tools and techniques that can be used to solve problems on these topics are presented in detail in this book, which offers an ideal reference work for all researchers interested in effective quantitative and qualitative tools.

The content is divided into three major sections. The first, which is titled "Social work," collects papers on problems related to the social sciences, e.g. social cohesion, health, and digital technologies. Papers in the second part, "Education and teaching issues," address qualitative aspects, education, learning, violence, diversity, disability, and ageing, while the book's final part, "Recent trends in qualitative and quantitative models for socio-economic systems and social work," features contributions on both qualitative and quantitative issues.

The book is based on a scientific collaboration, in the social sciences, mathematics, statistics, and economics, among experts from the "Pablo de Olavide" University of Seville (Spain), the "University of Defence" of Brno (Czech Republic), the "G. D'Annunzio" University of Chieti-Pescara (Italy) and "Alexandru Ioan Cuza University" of Iaşi (Romania). The contributions, which have been selected using a peer-review process, examine a wide variety of topics related to the social sciences in general, while also highlighting new and intriguing empirical research conducted in various countries. Given its scope, the book will appeal, in equal measure, to sociologists, mathematicians, statisticians and philosophers, and more generally to scholars and specialists in related fields.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書的主要目的是不僅呈現社會科學研究領域的最新研究和進展,還希望激發對統計學、數學和經濟學相關實務問題的討論。因此,本書詳細介紹了一系列可用於解決這些主題問題的工具和技術,為所有對有效的定量和定性工具感興趣的研究者提供了理想的參考資料。

內容分為三個主要部分。第一部分標題為「社會工作」,收集了與社會科學相關的問題的論文,例如社會凝聚力、健康和數位技術。第二部分「教育與教學問題」的論文則探討了定性方面的議題,包括教育、學習、暴力、多樣性、殘疾和老齡化,而本書的最後一部分「社會經濟系統和社會工作的定性與定量模型的最新趨勢」則包含了關於定性和定量問題的貢獻。

本書基於來自西班牙塞維利亞的「巴布羅·德·奧拉維德大學」、捷克共和國布爾諾的「國防大學」、意大利基耶蒂-佩斯卡拉的「G. D'Annunzio大學」以及羅馬尼亞雅西的「亞歷山德魯·約翰·庫扎大學」的專家在社會科學、數學、統計學和經濟學領域的科學合作。這些經過同行評審過程選出的貢獻,檢視了與社會科學相關的各種主題,同時突顯了在不同國家進行的新穎且引人入勝的實證研究。考慮到其範疇,本書將同樣吸引社會學家、數學家、統計學家和哲學家,以及更廣泛的相關領域學者和專家。
