Dynamic Multilevel Approach for the study of Scientific Networks

How can we understand scientific networks using a dynamic multilevel perspective? Which types of insights can give the multilevel networks for the understanding of different mechanisms developed in the network theory and the sociology of science? The following presentation addresses this question, applying different approaches in a national scientific discipline using the frame of inferential networks. Some of the models that are used to analyse dynamic multilevel networks are the stochastic actor-oriented model (SAOM), the relational event model (REM), and the dynamic network actor model (DyNAM). The first part of the presentation deals with an Analysis of Multilevel Networks using a three-mode network as a co-evolutionary process. The second part explores a Multilevel Network Analysis perspective, comparing ‘parallel’ networks as multiple groups using a random coefficient multilevel SAOM. Finally, the presentation will give some outlines of an Analysis of Multilevel Networks when times are treated as interaction in the perspective of REM and DyNAM. The three analyses provide different interpretations of the scientific network, allowing disentangling how the theory of networks and the network theory are used in the context of dynamic models for multilevel scientific networks.
