the network that are transitive. The transitive triads are those of type
120D
, 030T
, 120U
, or 300
in the categorization
of Davis and Leinhardt (1972). For details on the 16 possible triad types,
see ?triad.classify
in the sna package.
Note the distinction from the ttriple
term. This term can only be
used with directed networks.
