Help studying ideas contagion #25

Open Fabrizio-Marini opened 6 years ago

Fabrizio-Marini commented 6 years ago

Hello, I'm working on a corporate social network consisting of about 3000 actors. My dataset contains the contagion of a particular class of ideas between the actors over time. I'm approaching R and netdiffuseR for the fist time. My problem is that the adoption of the ideas I want to study is very variable over time, so much that a person could change it's idea during a very short period of time. I've just read the previous issue about disadoption at this link https://github.com/USCCANA/netdiffuseR/issues/20 I would like to know if there is a way to still use netdiffuseR for this kind of contagion and if there is any tutorial related to this case. thank you very much in advance.

Are you talking about multiple ideas competing?

Yes exactly, my situation requires to take into account at least three different states in which a person can be.

Hey, sorry for the lag.... unfortunately, there's no way of simulating such phenomena right now using netdiffuseR. I would encourage you to take a look at EpiModel. That should be flexible enough to do what you need.

Best,
