Egozentrierte Netzwerkerhebung mittels selbstadministrierter Computerinterviews

In this paper we will present the tradition of social network research under the special view of the practical and theoretical research aspects. With theoretical aspects we will emphasize on the specific network attempt of reducing the ?individualistic bias“ of traditional survey research. The practical aspects will be covered by the presentation of some results of network analytic research and proposals for methods of data collection within ego centered social network research.
