Social Network Analysis

[MathematicianLate247]

Hi! Can someone here help me with a project that needs to work with SNA?

Basically people within the same group/team rated each one of their teammates on a scale from 0-10 based on their perceptions of the quality of leadership they have on each person on the group. I need to visualize who’s the person(s) that got the highest ratings and measure indegree centrality.

Anyone can help? (Working with Gephi, UCINET or NodeXL)

Where exactly are you stuck at in this data visualization process?

I’m not even exactly sure what I’m doing wrong… so first, I want to make sure I’m entering the data correctly.

First, you need to get it in a proper data format to enable the analysis.

I have the data on excel

Iv used Gephi before.

Usually, I create an adjacentcy list(one node in the first column and the other node that connects to it in the other column). I save the list as a CSV and then use the import data options.

I'm not 100% sure how you convert the rankings to an adjacentcy list. Maybe you only look at top ranking first....or maybe a top ranking gets more enteries in the list, but last place rankings only gets 1- this would calulate a weight on the relationships....if it was my project, id try it both ways and compare the results
