我开发并分析了一个数学模型，描述了个人对集体利益的贡献与使这些贡献相互依赖的社会关系网络之间的关系。从演员的贡献，因为效率的关注和规范的公平性的假设开始，我得到的预测网络结构的影响，总的贡献。网络的密度和规模以截然不同的方式影响集体行动的结果，这取决于那些无条件贡献者的结构地位。此外，这些影响是高度非线性的，这表明社会关系对集体行动的影响可能对动员环境相当敏感。
I develop and analyze a mathematical model describing the relationship between individual contributions to a collective good and the network of social relations that makes these contributions interdependent. Starting from the assumption that actors respond to the contributions of others because of efficacy concerns and norms of fairness, I derive predictions about the impact of network structure on total contributions. Network density and size influence collective action outcomes in dramatically different ways, depending on the structural position of those who make unconditional contributions. Moreover these effects are highly nonlinear suggesting that the impact of social ties on collective action may be quite sensitive to mobilization contexts.
