摘要:
Based on the analysis of three kinds of sociological data (attribute, relational and ideational), this paper compared two types of unit of analysis (UA) for sociological research: UA of “point” and UA of “tie.” Using the P1 model, the author demonstrated the process of relational data analysis. The network approach could probe deeply into the relational essence of a variety of social phenomena.
