netdraw arrowheads not removed
3
I've been having some odd interactions with Netdraw--both when I open a UCINet data file or the original dl file. The original files themselves are fine --UCINet likes my dl file. I can open both data formats in Netdraw and work with the results--rearranging the individual networks for visibility, etc. When I first open a file, the links have arrowheads at both ends. No problem -- I turn them off. However, if I save the Netdraw data for that configuration as a vna file, when I reopen it later on, I have arrowheads on the links that will not turn off. It's frustrating. Any thoughts? It's a PITA to have to open a new network from the original data and redo all my work every time I want to tweak something (e.g. color/shape of nodes, vary tie size visualization, you name it). Thanks in advance. Katherine W. McCain, Professor Emerita Department of Information Science College of Computing & Informatics Drexel University

First time using geographical coordinates in Ucinet
3
Dear all, I¡¯m about to use geographical coordinates in to create network in Ucinet. This is my first time and I have a very basic question Should I only include numbers when entering the coordinates to Ucinet? For example: Latitude = 33.9173¡ã S and Longitude = 151.2313¡ã E - should the ¡ã, E and S be deleted? If so will I need to entre + or ¨C to indicate the direction?

shocking problems about subgroups-louvain method !!!
3
#help
when useing the louvain method, the results are quite wired. I don't know whether your algorithms are applicable on a directed weighted network. So, I use three customed datasets to test. The results are shocking! WHY the weights didn't make differences on the results? As the photos showed, the datasets are different merely on the weight between nodes, but they turned out exactly the same results??? I am so confused and shocked...

#help How to deal with collinearity between independent variables when running MRQAP ?
2
#help
Hi all, I encountered a problem when running MRQAP. I try to investigate which factors influnce formal collaboration between cities(weighted and undirected). I have two independent variables: IV1-informal interaction (weighted and undirected); IV2-network of prescribed interaction (binary and unweighted), and one control variable. When I include IV1 and the control variable, IV1 is insinificant and sign is +. However, when IV2 is included, IV1 is significant and the sign is -. I guess that issue may arise due to colinearity between IV1 and IV2. Is there a solution like the residualization strategy in OLS to sovle this problem? (maybe it sounds strange¨s¦ä¨t) Any information would be appreciated. Thank you! Best, Longxia Huo Ph.D. Student

Composition (heterogeneity/diversity) between and within groups
8
#help
Hi Everyone, I am calculating each ego's composition of networks by Ego Networks | Egonet Composition | Categorical Attributes. I have work and idea-sharing relationships between actors from a whole network. The procedure runs fine and I have generated IQV and Blau's index. However, I wanted to know the diversity of roles within one group such as ego belongs to finance staff, what is the composition (heterogeneity/Blau's index) of the finance people within his egonet (within diversity), and what is the composition of others (between ego's group and other roles - between diversity) (e.g., marketers, sales, etc.) Blau's index for within groups will be, I think, using the proportion of his groups' ties only. For between groups, other proportions can be used to calculate in excel, I reckon. I am unsure. Is there a way of doing these in UCINET? If not, would UCINET team be able to incorporate these into UCINET and provide these in the output as separate columns: ego's category, within heterogeneity and between heterogeneity, perhaps IQV would be appreciated as well? I went through the forum's chats but I couldn't come across a solution. Any thoughts or comments are appreciated. Thanks!

REGE algorithm problem
3
Hi, I am working with networks with hundreds of nodes. When I apply the REGE algorithm, in the UCINET window, I can see "do not answer". At this point, sometimes I get the results, sometimes no. Is it possible to run on CLI? Maybe the problem is only the GUI? I didn't find any command for this. Best regards

#help sender effect for undirected network in MRQAP
4
#help
Hi all, I have one question relating to MRQAP procedure in UCINET. I have collected two types of social relations among the same set of actors: (1)formal collaborative network N1(undirected and unweighted); (2)informal friendship network N2(undirected and unweighted). And I want to run MR-QAP to examine factors predicting ties in N1. When I include a sender effect, UCINET prompts the following message: "Note: At least one matrix was not symmetric, so all data treated as directed." Does it mean that the result maybe unreliable and that MR-QAP is unappropriate for undirected network analysis? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you! Best, Longxia Huo Ph.D. Student

Import Excel File

Hi everyone: I have an Excel file with a list of papers and their identification with WOS areas to which they belong in individual columns. My intention is to build a 1-mode matrix with the matches between these areas, that is, the number of papers in which they coincide. It is like this: WOS AREA 1 WOS AREA 2 WOS AREA 2 PAPER 1 Medicine, General & Internal PAPER 2 Engineering, Industrial Management Operations Research & Management Science PAPER 3 Medicine, General & Internal PAPER 4 Multidisciplinary Sciences How can I import the Excel into UCINET so that I can convert it into a matrix that I can manipulate? Would I have to do any previous operation before importing it? Thank you in advance.

a little help
5
Hi, can I verify a bug with you guys? In UCINET¡¯s main window, there is an Excel button. If you press it, it is supposed to ask you for the name of a UCINET dataset, and then send the data to Excel. It doesn¡¯t seem to be working on my Windows 11 machine, but is working on my Windows 10 machines. Do you get the same thing? Also, in the CLI, you should be able to type ->excel campnet and achieve the same thing. Thanks steve Stephen P. Borgatti Gatton Endowed Chair Dept. of Management University of Kentucky

9/11 data
2
Good morning, There seems to be a mistake in the 9/11 hijackers dataset available on the UCINET website (https://sites.google.com/site/ucinetsoftware/datasets/covert-networks/911-hijackers). The data should be undirected but, for some reason, there is no symmetry in the prior contacts matrix (below). For example, Nawaf Alhamzi had prior contact with Ahmed Alnami but Ahmed Alnami did not.

Running forfiles with multirelational egonets
2
#egonetworks
Hi Steve, I am setting up a tutorial about using forfiles to work with egonet datasets. The example datasets I am using happen to be multi-relational. Forfiles AANet_* coh-$$ = cohesion($$) works well, and saves the output files but gives can't open scratch file error messages. Back in the GUI I get error messages when I try anything and have to restart UCINET to get going again. I have put the procedure extension (coh-) before the wildcard ($$) so that I can then do further forfile procedures - perhaps that is the issue. Cheers, M.

#help How to use command line interface to compute all the shortest path between all possible nodes
#help
I have around 2000 nodes, I want to find the shortest path from node 1 to node 2, node 3 to node 2, node 4 to node 2, so on and so forth In Stata I can easily do it in a loop, but I do not know how to run loop in UCINET. Can anyone help? The file name is "C:\Users\joeyy\Desktop\2004-crd" One example is the following: Input Network: 2004-crd (C:\Users\joeyy\Desktop\2004-crd) Type of paths: Length <= 5 Length cutoff: 5 1 paths found. Paths from s10 to s15 1: s10 -> s41 -> s5100 -> s4704 -> s1441 -> s15

Extracting a specific component from a large muti-component network
2
The directions I wrote out for myself are dated 2012 and it appears that the commands and input/output screens in UCINet have changed. No surprise there. What I¡¯d like to find out is what are the current commands that would do the same as the following: I used to run the following Network|regions|components|binary graphs and this would give me an output called component_sets. In 2012 I would be given a long text document that included a list of the node names in each component and an identifying column number Now I get a list of components by size and a single list of node names with a column number. To extract a specific component I used to run Data|filter/extract|subgraphs for each group --and I¡¯d be presented with an input screen that was actually labeled ¡°Extract Subgraph Via Attribute Vector¡± In 2012 I was able to input my data set, my ¡°compsets¡± data set and specify the column I wanted to extract (the component I was interested in) This is where I¡¯m lost ¨C I don¡¯t see a command that would allow me to extract just one column from the ¡°compsets¡± output so I could take a look at in in NetDraw. Guidance and suggestions would be appreciated. Clearly I¡¯m missing something that is perfectly obvious to folks who have been persistent users of UCINet¡ªpossibly just a terminology change.

some questions about QAP
3
Hi all, I have two questions relating to QAP in UCINET. 1. MR-QAP and LR-QAP application in binary network After reading the chapter8 of ASN, I am wondering that the relationship between MR-QAP and LR-QAP is the same as between their analogues in logit and ordinary regression; and MR-QAP is more suitable for valued dependent variable and LR-QAP is more suitable for binary dependent variable? However, I find that some binary cases like the high-tec example is analysed by MR-QAP. Or may MR-QAP works in both cases? 2.coefficient comparison I have two different undirected collaborative networks: N1(35*35) and N2(41*41). And I want to run QAP to (1) examine factors predicting collaboration (homophily, sender effect, and transitivity; the identical model specification, but the outcome objects are different); (2) explore the relative contribution of above effects within network; (3) and compare the strength of certain effect across QAPs (e.g. is the homophily effect in N1 stronger than N2). Could I ues MR-QAP and compare the standardized coefficient of N1 model and N2 model and run T-test? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you! Best, Longxia Huo Ph.D. Student
