  1. Occupational marriage networks in the USA, 1970-2010Dave Griffiths & Paul LambertSchool of Applied Social Science, University of StirlingPaper presented to Social Stratification Research Seminar, 1 September 2011, University of StirlingWork for this paper is supported by the ESRC as part of the project ‘Social Networks and Occupational Structure’, see http://www.camsis.stir.ac.uk/sonocs/

  2. Generating networks sociograms of the occupational structure • Testing reliability of obtaining data from large-scale social surveys • Initial results of mapping occupational structure using SNA methods • Examine occupational categorisation schemes

  14. Conclusions • Social Network Analysis can provide empirical evidence of occupational stratification • Networks should be interpreted in terms of wide trends rather than specific occupations • Little evolution of marriage networks in last 40 years of USA, but educational cohort effects are emerging • Microclasses generally a sound way to group occupations, although social interaction patterns suggest not quite maximal.
