“…Social capital has been measured quantitatively in social sciences by conducting empirical studies with human subjects (Kim et al 2021;Marcaletti and Oldani 2021) or under laboratory environments (Karlan 2005). Network scientists also measured structural social capital based on network topologies (Andersson 2021;Tsai 2021). Further, social capital in online platforms has been measured on Facebook and Twitter in the computer science domains (Phua, Jin, and Kim 2017;Cho, Alsmadi, and Xu 2016;Ye, Ho, and Zerbe 2021).…”

The tremendous growth of social media has been accompanied by highly advanced online social network (OSN) technologies. Such advanced technologies have been heavily utilized by perpetrators as convenient tools for deceiving people in online worlds. Social capital has been discussed as a powerful mechanism to leverage interpersonal relationships in social networks in order for an individual to achieve his/her goal. The beauty of social capital is the ability to materialize non-monetary, less costly, and non-economic resources into tools to solve social problems. In this paper, we aim to leverage social capital (SC) to minimize online users' vulnerabilities to online deception. In particular, we propose a Social cApital-based FriEnd Recommendation scheme, called SAFER, that can protect OSN users from phishing attacks. We quantify three dimensions of social capital, namely, structural, cognitive, and relational, based on user features obtained from real datasets and model a user's friending behavior based on their social capital. In addition, to model a user's behavior upon being attacked by a phishing attacker, we developed the so-called SER-SEIR (Susceptible, Exposed, Recovered-Susceptible, Exposed, Infected, and Recovered) model as a variant of the SEIR model. Via extensive simulation experiments based on two real datasets considering bot-based and human-based attackers performing phishing attacks, we demonstrate the performance of four SC-based friend recommendation schemes with three non-SC-based comparable counterparts in terms of the ratio of detecting attackers and the fraction of users in the states of S, E, I, and R. Based on the performance comparison, we analyze the overall trends of their performance in terms of the extent of resistance against phishing attacks by bot or human attackers.

“…Such studies tend to focus on one single transition on the housing market, often in conjuncture with a demographic event. For example, tenure transitions are often coupled with family formation (Chudnovskaya, 2019), leaving the parental home (Andersson, 2021) or preparing for the old age (Abramsson & Andersson, 2016). When it comes to social stratification, Turner and Hedman (2014) suggested that native Swedes are more likely to enter the home owning sector than migrants while Bråmå and Andersson (2010) and Alm Fjellborg (2021) show that natives with resources are more likely to move out of rental housing and into home ownership.…”

“…Ownership has at the same time become less attainable for larger proportions of the population. Previous research suggests that young adults are increasingly dependent on parental wealth to enter home ownership and dependent on their social network to enter the housing market at all (Andersson, 2021;Christophers & O'Sullivan, 2018;Öst, 2012;Pfeffer & Waitkus, 2021). Some reasons for these difficulties are increasing house prices, more widespread housing shortages, higher costs of housing and the marketisation of the Swedish housing system.…”

“…Some alternatives seem more viable than others depending on resources and preferences, which are shaped by the social and economic background of the individual (Abramsson, 2003). A recent work by Andersson (2021) also adds that social capital, in terms of networks, are important for young adults' alternatives on the housing market. Besides social and economic factors, which are resources that are stratified, we also believe that the context in which one lives has consequences for preferences and available opportunities on the housing market (Friedrichs, Galster, & Musterd, 2003).…”

“…There is an ongoing discussion about the future of the housing system, and more specifically, the future of the public housing sector (Blackwell & Bengtsson, 2021). Previously, the public housing sector aimed at encompassing all income groups, but recent research shows a development where economically affluent households leave rental housing in favour of owning (Andersson, 2021;Borg, 2019;Bråmå & Andersson, 2010). But at the same time, due to increasing house prices, many young adults are struggling to enter the owner-occupied sector ( Öst, 2012).…”

In this paper, we examine the intersections of parental support and family socioeconomic background within an undergraduate sample (N = 596) in a mid-sized Canadian Prairie city. Coresidence, financial support, and parental and professional financial advice are examined as types of 'family capital' that may be distributed unequally across socioeconomic groups. In keeping with previous literature, findings showed that students whose parents had university education and higher incomes received more robust coverage of their housing and school expenses. Students whose parents were university-educated were also more likely to be living with a parent, though no relationship was found between parental income and coresidence. Contrasting with previous literature, few relationships were found between socioeconomic background and receipt or influence of financial advice. These results contribute to the literature by generalising claims about family capital to a Canadian student sample, where relatively few studies have empirically examined intergenerational transfers as mechanisms for transmitting privilege during the transition to adulthood.
