Encyclopedia Entry for Lambert Adolphe Jacques Quetelet Dictionary Definition of Lambert Adolphe Jacques Quetelet Lambert Adolphe Jacques Quetelet February 22 ) was a Belgian astronomer statistician and sociologist . He founded and directed the Brussels observatory and was influential in introducing statistical methods to the social sciences Quetelet received a doctorate in mathematics in from the University of Ghent . Shortly thereafter, the young man set out to convince government officials and private donors to build an astronomical observatory in Brussel ; he succeeded in The new science of probability and statistics was mainly used in astronomy at the time, to get a handle on measurement errors with the method of least squares . Quetelet was among the first who attempted to apply it to social science, planning what he called a "social physics". He was keenly aware of the overwhelming complexity of social phenomena, and the many variables that needed measurement. His goal was to understand the statistical laws underlying such phenomena as crime rates, marriage rates or suicide rates. He wanted to explain the values of these variables by other social factors. These ideas were rather controversial among other scientists at the time who held that it contradicted a concept of freedom of choice. His most influential book was , published in . In it, he outlines the project of a social physics and describes his concept of the "average man" (

Quetelet received his first doctorate in 1819 from Ghent for a dissertation on the theory of conic sections. After receiving this doctorate he taught mathematics in Brussels, then, in 1823, he went to Paris to study astronomy at the Observatory there. He learnt astronomy from Arago and Bouvard and the theory of probability under Joseph Fourier and Pierre Laplace Influenced by Laplace and Fourier , Quetelet was the first to use the normal curve other than as an error law. His studies of the numerical consistency of crimes stimulated wide discussion of free will versus social determinism. For his government he collected and analysed statistics on crime, mortality etc. and devised improvements in census taking. His work produced great controversy among social scientists of the 19th century. At an observatory in Brussels that he established in 1833 at the request of the Belgian government, he worked on statistical, geophysical, and meteorological data, studied meteor showers and established methods for the comparison and evaluation of the data.

Dienst wetenschappelijke inlichtingen Op 8 juni 1826 tekent Willem I, koning der Nederlanden, het Koninklijk besluit ter oprichting van een Sterrenwacht te Brussel. De bouw van de Sterrenwacht aan de Schaarbeekse Poort (Sint-Joost-ten-Node) begint in 1827. Het duurde nog geruime tijd vooraleer de Sterrenwacht met sterrenkundige instrumenten werd uitgerust. Met de meteorologie, een wetenschap die toen nog op het programma van de meeste sterrenwachten stond, kon men al snel aanvangen. Op 9 januari 1828 wordt Adolphe Quetelet tot astronoom benoemd (met ingang van 1 april 1828), maar de bouw van de Sterrenwacht kent veel vertraging. Tijdens de Belgische Revolutie wordt er in en rondom de Sterrenwacht gevochten, maar ook na de revolutie blijft de sterrenwacht bestaan. Adolphe Quetelet wordt op 8 december 1830 in zijn functie als directeur bevestigd door de Voorlopige Regering. Pas in 1832 konden de wetenschappelijke activiteiten van de Sterrenwacht van start gaan. De onderbroken reeks van klassieke meteorologische waarnemingen begint. In 1841 start men ook met magnetische waarnemingen (declinatie en inclinatie) en in 1842 met de actinometrische waarnemingen (waarnemingen i.v.m. straling). Het gebouw van de Sterrenwacht van Brussel aan de Schaarbeekse poort is eindelijk volledig klaar en de instrumenten, zoals de muurcirkel en de equatoriaalkijker kunnen in gebruik genomen worden.
