swingers — Swingers and parties (2013)
- Description
Bipartite (two-mode) sexual affiliation network of swinger couples and the swinger parties they attended, from the study of A.-M. Niekamp et al. on the spread of sexually transmitted infections among swingers (heterosexuals who engage in sexual activity with partners outside their relationship). Each couple ("swing unit") is represented by a single node, and an edge connects a couple to a party it attended. There are 57 couples and 39 parties. The data were distributed as a two-mode matrix by the UCINET project. Edges are directed from couples to parties, although the direction carries no additional information.
The network has the following properties:
- (Node)
name: the label of the node in the upstream matrix (numbers for couples, letters for parties). - (Node)
is_party: whether the node is a party (true) or a couple (false).
