These functions include ways to take a census of the brokerage positions of nodes in a network:
node_brokerage_census() returns the Gould-Fernandez brokerage
roles played by nodes in a network.
network_brokerage_census() returns the Gould-Fernandez brokerage
roles in a network.
node_brokerage_census(.data, membership, standardized = FALSE)
network_brokerage_census(.data, membership, standardized = FALSE)
node_brokering_activity(.data, membership)
node_brokering_exclusivity(.data, membership)
node_brokering(.data, membership)An object of a {manynet}-consistent class:
matrix (adjacency or incidence) from {base} R
edgelist, a data frame from {base} R or tibble from {tibble}
igraph, from the {igraph} package
network, from the {network} package
tbl_graph, from the {tidygraph} package
A vector of partition membership as integers.
Whether the score should be standardized into a z-score indicating how many standard deviations above or below the average the score lies.
