remstats (version 3.2.4)

rrankSend: rrankSend

Description

Specifies the statistic for a recency rank send effect in the effects argument of tomstats or the receiver_effects argument of aomstats.

Usage

rrankSend(consider_type = TRUE)

Value

List with all information required by `remstats::remstats()` to compute the statistic.

Arguments

consider_type

logical, indicates whether to discriminate between event types in determining the event rank (TRUE, default) or not (FALSE).

Details

The rrankSend effect refers to a rank-based recency effect, as described in section 2.2.5 of Butts (2008). For each timepoint t, for directed dyad (i,j) the statistic is equal to the inverse of the rank of receiver j among the actors to which sender i has most recently send past events. Note that the 'rrankSend' effect is only defined for directed events.

Examples

reh_tie <- remify::remify(history, model = "tie")
effects <- ~ rrankSend()
remstats(tie_effects = effects, reh = reh_tie)

reh_actor <- remify::remify(history, model = "actor")
remstats(receiver_effects = effects, reh = reh_actor)
