By default, this term adds one statistic to the model, equal to the number of cyclic triples in the network, defined as a set of edges of the form \(\{(i{\rightarrow}j), (j{\rightarrow}k), (k{\rightarrow}i)\}\) .
# binary: ctriple(attr=NULL, diff=FALSE, levels=NULL)# binary: ctriad
quantitative attribute (see Specifying Vertex attributes and Levels (?nodal_attributes
) for details.) If attr
is specified and diff
is FALSE
, then the statistic is the number of cyclic triples where all
three nodes have the same value of the attribute. If attr
is specified and diff
is TRUE
, then one statistic is added to the model for each value of attr
, equal to the number of cyclic triples where all
three nodes have that value of the attribute.
specifies the value of attr
to consider if attr
is passed and diff=TRUE
. (See Specifying Vertex
attributes and Levels (?nodal_attributes
) for details.)
