Hi Steve et al;.
I am exploring ways to use UCINET with multiple ego networks. The task is to take a set egonet datasets, calculate cohesion measures for each one, then join the (single column) output files into one dataset on which I can then run univariate statistics.
I am working with the CLI interface.
forfiles works for the cohesion measures //forfiles AANetSoc_* $$-coh = cohesion($$)
?
Joincols requires each new file name (-coh) to be entered manually (Browse and select). Not practical for any large of egonets.
?
Once the joined dataset is created one can use Univariate stats to analyse further.
?
I have tried a variety of ways to find a way to run the joincols function on the AANetSoc_* -coh files, without any success. I think my optimum procedure would be to use ? wildcards within the joincols function. (join = joincols(AANetSoc_??????-coh). The joincols function does not recognize wildcards (* or ?) however.
[Incidentally, I can't get the ? wildcard to work for forfiles procedure either.]
?
Any suggestions please. (I attach my 3 egonet datasets.)
