SUMMARY:Brown Bag Seminar: Shannon Ang
DESCRIPTION:PSC’s Brown Bag seminar series typically convenes Mondays at noon, at ISR Thompson Room 1430, and on Zoom.PSC alum Shannon Ang of Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) joins us Nov. 17, 2025Online ways for older adults to stay socially connected: Lessons from SingaporeAbstract: Online social interactions—through mobile applications, online forums, video calls, and social media—have proliferated. Early adopters of these tools tended to be young, but upcoming birth cohorts of older adults are increasingly likely to use them to stay socially connected. Yet we know little about how older adults integrate their online social participation with in-person (or offline) social participation, as well as its consequences for well-being. Survey research has also evolved, with more older adults taking part in online surveys as response rates for in-person surveys fall. How can online social participation shape older adult well-being, and can we leverage their online presence to conduct research? In this talk, I will share some insights from an ongoing survey project which employs three different modes of survey sampling (in-person; commercial panel; respondent-driven) to assess how older adults aged 50-75 stay connected in Singapore, where the use of digital technology is widespread.Bio: Shannon Ang is currently Assistant Professor of Sociology and Deputy Director of the Centre for the Study of Social Inequality at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He relies primarily on survey methods to pursue research interests located at the intersection of social connectedness and societal change. Findings from these studies have been published in Social Science and Medicine, Demography, and the Journals of Gerontology Series B: Psychological and Social Sciences, amongst others.https://umich.zoom.us/j/95418610585?pwd=Z0cvdkF1T0R2cG1lRDEvVmlnbVdlZz09Meeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592,,95418610585# US (Washington DC)\n+13092053325,,95418610585# USDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nFind your local number: https://umich.zoom.us/u/aCRAyuQaTJoin by SIP\n95418610585@zoomcrc.comJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420 \n
