Beschreibung

Social network analysis is a methodological tool used to investigate social networks, or collections of individuals, groups, or organizations and their shared relationships. Sport researchers increasingly have applied social network analysis to a variety of sport contexts, from team interactions among players and coaches to tailgating among fans to mega sporting events and their organizers and other stakeholders. An opportunity now exists to expand this research and generate new insights regarding myriad sport contexts and applications. This book provides an overview of the growing body of social network analysis research in sport. Additionally, it offers practical guidance for applying social network analysis within different sport settings and for using this methodology with new research applications.
