The Point of PoSR
PoSR was developed to better represent and understand increasingly heterogenous social contexts and relations between people that seemed to arise from increased use of mobile communications. PoSR can be used to understand how messages things that people are doing are related together.
In other words, different types of behavior that may sometimes seem unrelated are associated together.
PoSR can help to claify emerging social behavior better by revealing the emergent properties of heterogeneity, multiplexing, multiplicity, asynchronicity and synchronicity in relation to overlapping and partially overlapping social networks.
