Lab #15
I went out into my neighborhood to see if people could name their neighbors. One of the people knew a lot of his neighbors while most only knew 1 or 2 of their neighbors. This shows that social capital is definately not very high around where I live. Just another thing that shows this low social capital is the fact that when I am home I never see anyone outside in my neighborhood and if I do they usually aren't very friendly.

this lab is really well-done! i love the variety of people used. It shows how common it is that americans don't know their neighbors

Your video was really awesome. I think the results would be about the same in my neighborhood. Except for one or two people who know everybody.

It's astonishing how much social capital is decreasing.
ReplyDeleteI know my neighborhood is relatively social capitalistic, though.
I love your video. You guys are really talented. You took an interesting approach to the lab, asked good questions, and wrote insightful analysis of your labs. I really enjoyed your video, especially. Well done! You are good social capital detectives!
