Hi

I had a quick look at your data. The real issue is that there is no real network. You have 200 cols and 1,800 rows (roughly). But each of the cols has a unique set of rows. Ie there are no interlocking directorates. No row is attached to more than one column. To see this take your data and run tools univariate stats and just selected row sums. They are all one. The picture you would get in netdraw (and why it is tricky to get is they all look the same) is just each column as a node with the rows attached. IE a collection of stars with no connections between the cols hence no interlock. In short none of your board members are on more than one board so there is no real network.

Hello Group,

I am Anthony, am new in SNA I would like to apply the SNA to my project ¡°Interlocking Directorate of board members¡± sitting in one or two firms, I need help to compute the number of directors interlocked in these firms by using company-director, director-director using 1- mode or 2-mode matrix form. I want to be able to determine the geodesic distance, the connectivity of board members, network centrality, and density.

I have tried several times in using my data, but I keep getting wrong response from Ucinet especially on the graph layout and also it freezes without me seeing anything, am not sure if the problem is coming from my data, please I need help in this area since I am new with SNA. I have attached a copy of my raw data and data I uploaded on ucinet to this email if anyone could be of help here, many thanks in advance for your time.

Kind Regards,

?

Anthony.?
