We describe a general strategy to analyze sequence data and introduce SQ-Ados, bundle of Stata programs implementing the proposed strategy. The include several tools for describing visualizing sequences as well Mata library perform optimal matching using Needleman–Wunsch algorithm. With these becomes first statistical package offer complete set analysis.

This article marks the occasion of Social Science Research's 50th anniversary by reflecting on progress sequence analysis (SA) since its introduction into social sciences four decades ago, with focuses developments SA thus far in and potential future directions. The application sciences, especially life course research, has mushroomed last decade a half. Using analogy, we examined birth childhood (the first wave), adolescence young adulthood second mature paper. paper provides summary (1)...
Sequence analysis was originally invented by biologists with the aim of comparing DNA sequences in order to find out what extent two strands are homologous each other or, words, determine distance between them (Kruskal 1983). The established degree similarity then allows for conclusions about a common ancestor strands. initial utilization sequence sociology made 1980s, Andrew Abbott’s work on musicians’ careers and ritual dances (Abbott 1983; Abbott Forrest 1986).

Almost a fifth of the population in OECD countries report having disability and proportion students classified as special educational needs (SEN) has steadily increased over recent decades. While this group faces marginalization schooling employment everywhere, there are profound differences disability‐based disadvantages across countries. However, comparative research on labor market opportunities persons with disabilities (PwDs) remains limited, especially regarding school‐to‐work...
Many institutional theories assume that institutions function in conjunction with each other and, therefore, constitute regimes. Moreover, when analysing effects most researchers maintain a purely variable-oriented approach and its ceteris-paribus logic of causal association. This article analyses associations between configurations labour market education relative youth unemployment by examining 30 countries the Organisation for Economic Co-operation Development (OECD). The analysis reveals...
