Examples of Robert J. Havighurst in the following topics:
-
Activity Theory
- The theory was developed by gerontologist, or, scholar of aging, Robert J.
- Havighurst in 1961, and was originally conceived as a response to the recently published disengagement theory of aging.
- Havighurst's activity theory is at deliberate odds with what some perceive as the pessimism of disengagement theory.

The "adjacency" matrix
- If Bob and Carol are "friends" they share a "bonded tie" and the entry in the Xi,j cell will be the same as the entry in the Xj,i cell.
- In this case, the element showing Bob's relationship to Carol would be scored "1," while the element showing Carol's relation to Bob would be scored "0. " That is, in an "asymmetric" matrix, Xi,j is not necessarily equal to Xj,i.
- That is, the element i,j does not necessarily equal the element j,i.
- If the ties that we were representing in our matrix were "bonded-ties" (for example, ties representing the relation "is a business partner of" or "co-occurrence or co-presence," (e.g. where ties represent a relation like: "serves on the same board of directors as") the matrix would necessarily be symmetric; that is element i,j would be equal to element j,i.
- In representing social network data as matrices, the question always arises: what do I do with the elements of the matrix where i = j?

Summary
- An adjacency matrix is a square actor-by-actor (i=j) matrix where the presence of pair wise ties are recorded as elements.
-
What is a matrix?
- A "3 by 6" matrix has three rows and six columns; an "I by j" matrix has I rows and j columns.
