One-mode subset of the adolescent society network (Coleman 1961)

Source: R/data_ison.R

One-mode subset of Coleman's adolescent society network (Coleman 1961), as used in Feld's (1991) "Why your friends have more friends than you do". Coleman collected data on friendships among students in 12 U.S. high schools. Feld explored a subset of 8 girls from one of these schools, "Marketville", and gave them fictitious names, which are retained here.
