Social Science Research Resources Network
The Social Science Research Resources Network (SSRRN) was founded in 2008. It is a website that aims to assist social science researchers to conduct research by providing a platform that easily search all free database and statistical programming codes in the internet.
More and more researchers provide their resources free online in recent years as contributions to the social science research network. However, these resources are spread in different websites, which consumes researchers' time in searching these information. SSRRN thus provides a platform that gathers information of all free resources together and hence saves researcher’s time in searching resources. SSRRN does not host any data and programming codes, but provides a link to the webpage of the owner of the resources. Researchers can post basic information of their resources, i.e. title, descriptions and links, to SSRRN for indexing.

“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
“Science is a dynamic undertaking directed to lowering the degree of the empiricism involved in solving problems; or, if you prefer, science is a process of fabricating a web of interconnected concepts and conceptual schemes arising from experiments and observations and fruitful of further experiments and observations.”
—James Conant (1893–1978)
“If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs.”
—Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)
“The great object of Education should be commensurate with the object of life. It should be a moral one; to teach self-trust: to inspire the youthful man with an interest in himself; with a curiosity touching his own nature; to acquaint him with the resources of his mind, and to teach him that there is all his strength, and to inflame him with a piety towards the Grand Mind in which he lives. Thus would education conspire with the Divine Providence.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Parents need all the help they can get. The strongest as well as the most fragile family requires a vital network of social supports.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
