Reviewed tutorials build from relational questions and clean network data through descriptive measures, permutation tests, and responsible statistical modeling, then extend the workflow to longitudinal comparison.

Tutorial 01
Translate a relational question into an explicit network design by defining who can be a node, what counts as a tie, and where observation begins and ends.
Tutorial 04
Move from one network picture to a defensible account of reachability, density, reciprocity, structural cohesion, and possible community divisions.
Tutorial 08
Identify actors positioned between otherwise separated contacts or groups, compare brokerage measures, and interpret opportunity without turning network position into a claim about behavior or value.
Tutorial 10
Turn a bounded directed network into three whole-network measures, state each denominator and convention, and interpret connection, mutual exchange, and triadic closure as distinct structural patterns.
Tutorial 12
Separate the number of partners from the volume or intensity of interaction, then test whether a weighted conclusion survives defensible transformations.
Tutorial 14
Match edge direction to the relation instead of discarding who initiated, nominated, sought, or received an interaction.
