摘要
This paper presents observations on the personal networks of 91 randomly selected inhabitants of a community in southern California who are linked to 941 associates by social and economic interactions. Over 40% of these relations are with individuals in the same locality, and almost 50% refer to kin. Kin act as trouble-shooters; friends are social companions; and neighbors are less significant. The pattern is similar for Angles and Hispanic immigrants, but kin and local ties are more important among Hispanics (over 70%). (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
