Abstract

We address two questions central to the "network as resources" argument, using network data from two mass surveys. First, how is range best measured? We identify six dimensions of range: one each reflecting network size and complexity, and two each representing density and diversity. Second, what is the nature of the relationship between SES and social resources? Evidence here supports the proposition that network range and composition are positively related to an actor's socioeconomic status.
