Abstract:
Social network analysis, a methodological approach to measuring and mapping relationships, can be used to study whole networks, all of the ties within a defined group, or connections that individuals have in their personal communities. This brief introduces the concepts behind SNA and illustrates how to use this method in process and outcome evaluations.
