多通道社会签名与自我网络的持久性特征
Multichannel social signatures and persistent features of ego networks
摘要：
自我中心网络的结构反映了人们如何平衡他们对强大的、情感上强烈的关系和各种较弱关系的需求。自我中心的网络结构可以用“社会签名”来量化，它描述了人们如何在个人网络的成员（改变）之间分配他们的沟通努力。基于通话数据的社会签名表明，人们大多与几个亲密的改变交流;他们也有持久的，独特的签名。为了检验这些结果是否适用于其他通信渠道，在这里，我们比较了从通话和短信数据构建的社交签名，并开发了一种使用这两种渠道构建混合社交签名的方法。我们观察到，所有类型的签名显示持续的个体差异，保持稳定，尽管在个人改变营业额。我们还表明，呼叫，文本和混合签名彼此相似，在人口水平和个人水平。不同沟通渠道的个体之间的社会签名的一致性是令人惊讶的，因为渠道的选择似乎是改变特定的，没有明确的整体模式，从电话和文本构建的自我网络只有部分重叠的改变。这些结果表明，个人在如何分配他们的沟通努力在他们的个人网络，这种变化是持久的，随着时间的推移，在不同的沟通渠道。
英文摘要：
The structure of egocentric networks reflects the way people balance their need for strong, emotionally intense relationships and a diversity of weaker ties. Egocentric network structure can be quantified with 'social signatures', which describe how people distribute their communication effort across the members (alters) of their personal networks. Social signatures based on call data have indicated that people mostly communicate with a few close alters; they also have persistent, distinct signatures. To examine if these results hold for other channels of communication, here we compare social signatures built from call and text message data, and develop a way of constructing mixed social signatures using both channels. We observe that all types of signatures display persistent individual differences that remain stable despite the turnover in individual alters. We also show that call, text, and mixed signatures resemble one another both at the population level and at the level of individuals. The consistency of social signatures across individuals for different channels of communication is surprising because the choice of channel appears to be alter-specific with no clear overall pattern, and ego networks constructed from calls and texts overlap only partially in terms of alters. These results demonstrate individuals vary in how they allocate their communication effort across their personal networks and this variation is persistent over time and across different channels of communication.
