Dear All,<br><br><span dir="ltr" id=":122">while trying to model a 2-mode network with a very skewed degree distribution of the actors of the first mode,</span> I ran a model with the "1/outdegree+c" effect (outInv) and got a very large positive but very significant coefficient (theta=18 stdev=1.8 ), with convergent t-ratios. The outdegree activity effect (outActSqrt) instead gives convergent results but extremely high standard deviation.<br>
I would like some help in the interpretation of the outInv parameter in general and of the large coefficient in particular. Can I still interpret outInv as a parameter capturing the degree distribution, similarly to outActSqrt?<br>
<br>Thanks in advance.<br>Best,<br><br>Marco<br>
