Two Fraternity Data Sets

Description

Contains the time series from the Newcomb fraternity study, as well as the observational set from the Bernard-Killworth human interaction data sets.

Usage

electro.frats

Format

newcomb: an array, 17-by-17-by-15. Each of the 15 array slices represents a time point; each row represents the social preferences of each individual for the others at the time. Originally rank choices of 1-16, these are now fractions (17 - (1-16))/17 such that higher preferences have higher connection.

bernard.killworth.b: a 1934-by-3 array. Columns 1 and 2 ("P1","P2") represent the dyad under observation; column 3 ("count") is the number of times these individuals were seen to interact over the observational period.

Source

Originally obtained from the UCINET IV data source; included in R format for convenience and demonstration.
