Matrix in which the (i,j) element is an indicator of the relationship category from i to j in the first wave. Category values include '10' for "structural zero", which is included if i and j are in different networks, '0' for not tied, '1' for tied, and 'NA' for missing (i.e., i did not fill out the respective cell in the survey).

nets2

Matrix in which the (i,j) element is an indicator of the relationship category from i to j in the second wave.

govact

One-column matrix in which a 0 indicates non-governmental organization and 1 indicates governmental organization.

prodev

One-column matrix in which higher values indicate that the respondent is more supportive of development.

trust

Two-column matrix, with one column for each wave, in which higher values indicate greater trust for the other organizations in the network.
