Osnova
  • Assignment 1: Research question(s) (RQ) and its context (why is it relevant, important, etc.). Use available relevant academic resources, explain the relevance of your RQ. (min. 1 page)
  • Assignment 2: Data sampling and collection. What data will you collect, why and how? What is your operational definition of a tie/node? How are these connected to your RQ? (min. 1 page)
  • Assignment 3: Visualize your network and describe this visualisation. Visualize tie strength/node degree of the network. Describe its shape, connectedness, structure. (min. 2 pages)
  • Assignment 4: Analyse properties of your network (whole network properties, density, node centralities, sub-group analysis). Interpret the relevant results in terms of your RQ. (min. 2 pages)
