Yang to Present at CSSS Seminar on Wednesday
Analysis from CSDE Research Scientist June Yang will be featured at the Center for Statistics and the Social Sciences Seminar Series on Wednesday, January 15th at 12:30pm. The presentation, entitled “Gender Divergence in the Values Around Cohabitation in China: A Tale of ‘Two Generations,'” will feature Yang’s analysis of text data from two online discussion questions on a popular Q & A website, Zhihu (zhihu.com). Results show that cohabitation is not perceived as a value-neutral choice by the Zhihu users. Further, female users were found to exhibit more liberal attitudes than male users on cohabitation.
