In ergm: Fit, Simulate and Diagnose Exponential-Family Models for Networks

Mixing matrix for k-stars centered on the second mode of a bipartite network

Description

This term is exactly the same as b1starmix except that the roles of b1 and b2 are reversed.

Usage

# binary: b2starmix(k, attr, base=NULL, diff=TRUE)

Arguments

k	only a single value of k is allowed
attr	a vertex attribute specification (see Specifying Vertex attributes and Levels (?nodal_attributes) for details.)
base	deprecated
diff	whether a different statistic is created for each value seen in a b1 node. When diff=TRUE, the default, a different statistic is created for each value and thus the behavior of this term is reminiscent of the nodemix term, from which it takes its name; when diff=FALSE , all homophilous k-stars are counted together, though these k-stars are still categorized according to the value of the central b1 node.

Note

The argument base is retained for backwards compatibility and may be removed in a future version. When both base and levels are passed, levels overrides base. See nodal_attributes.
