Conference Agenda

Session
WS-T22: Advanced RSiena workshop
Time:
Tuesday, 24/June/2025:
9:00am - 4:30pm

Session Chair: Tom A.B. Snijders

Session Abstract

This workshop is intended for participants who have experience in working with RSiena.

Topics treated will be the following – all in the framework of modelling network panel data using the RSiena package

1. Parameter interpretation: semi-standardized parameters; entropy-based approach to explained variation.

2. Score-type tests.

3. Problems with convergence: various kinds.

4. Elementary effects and contextual effects.

5. Multivariate networks: cross-network effects; with attention to the associated hierarchy requirements.

6. Two-mode networks, and their co-evolution with one-mode networks.

7. Some effects that are little known, but which may be useful for analyzing two-mode networks.

8. If time allows: Non-directed networks.

9. If time allows: Valued networks (two kinds: networks with weak and strong ties; signed networks).
