Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • China
  • Social science
  • Agriculture

Barbara Entwisle mainly focuses on Developing country, Economic growth, Demographic economics, Socioeconomics and Social change. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agriculture, Small business, China, Grandparent and Conceptualization. The study incorporates disciplines such as Extended family, Private sector, Child rearing, Kinship and Family farm in addition to China.

Her Demographic economics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Social support, Interpersonal relationship, Embeddedness and Interpersonal ties. Barbara Entwisle has researched Socioeconomics in several fields, including Natural resource, Marital status, Qualitative property, Popularity and Focus group. Social environment, Socioeconomic status and Per capita is closely connected to Fertility in her research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Social change.

Her most cited work include:

  • Contextual analysis through the multilevel linear model. (297 citations)
  • Residential segregation and interracial friendship in schools (276 citations)
  • Putting people into place. (177 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Developing country, Economic growth, Land use, Socioeconomics and Demography. The various areas that Barbara Entwisle examines in her Developing country study include Child rearing, Fertility and Socioeconomic status. Barbara Entwisle focuses mostly in the field of Socioeconomic status, narrowing it down to matters related to Multilevel model and, in some cases, Regression analysis.

Her work in Economic growth covers topics such as China which are related to areas like Private sector. Her Land use research includes themes of Agriculture, Agent-based model and Environmental resource management. Her Socioeconomics research incorporates themes from Social change and Ethnic group.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Developing country (23.21%)
  • Economic growth (20.54%)
  • Land use (17.86%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Land use (17.86%)
  • Climate change (4.46%)
  • Demography (12.50%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary areas of investigation include Land use, Climate change, Demography, Data science and Big data. Her Land use study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agent-based model and Environmental resource management. Barbara Entwisle usually deals with Agent-based model and limits it to topics linked to Agriculture and Bounded rationality.

Her Climate change study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Land cover, Economic geography, Refugee and Agricultural economics. Her work carried out in the field of Demography brings together such families of science as Kinship Networks, Kinship and Birth cohort. Her Data science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biocomplexity, Pixel and Higher education.

Between 2008 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Social and Spatial Networks: Kinship Distance and Dwelling Unit Proximity in Rural Thailand. (40 citations)
  • Design of an Agent-Based Model to Examine Population-Environment Interactions in Nang Rong District, Thailand. (33 citations)
  • Recruitment of Women in the National Children's Study Initial Vanguard Study (25 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • China
  • Social science
  • Agriculture

Her main research concerns Demography, Land use, Agent-based model, Kinship Networks and Association. Her Demography study combines topics in areas such as Young adult, National Children's Study, Pediatrics and Vanguard. Her Land use research integrates issues from Agriculture and Climate change.

The concepts of her Agent-based model study are interwoven with issues in Household income, Land use, land-use change and forestry, Agricultural productivity, Environmental resource management and DSSAT. Kinship Networks is a subfield of Kinship that Barbara Entwisle investigates.
