Social (psychological and sociological) systems present
considerable difficulties for modellers due to their complexity,
multidimensionality, uncertainty and irreducibility. The book
proposes that response functions (MRF) be used as a method of
constructing purposeful, credible and integrated social systems'
models from data and prior knowledge or information. For case
studies the authors have selected the problems usually studied by
psychologists and sociologists with statistical procedures, such as
investigation of variance and discriminant analysis based on the
general linear model or one of its multivariate generalisations
(structural equation models, etc.); disordered eating and obesity;
subjective well-being and alexithymia. An accompanying CD-ROM
contains the demonstration versions of three models that are
discussed in the various chapters. The Method of Response Functions
in Psychology and Sociology is aimed at Mathematical Psychologists;
Mathematical Sociologists; Applied Psychologists; Sociologists and
Social Practitioners. It will also be suitable for use on
undergraduate as well as graduate and postgraduate courses
specializing in these areas.
