图的大小和密度与其他图级指数（GLI）有着强大而微妙的相互作用，从而使它们的解释变得复杂。在这里，我们通过绘制不同大小和密度的图中几个流行的图测量值的分布变化来检查这些相互作用。我们提供了一个通用的框架，假设检验作为一种手段控制的大小和密度的影响，并将这种方法应用到几个著名的社交网络数据集，我们的研究结果的方法和实质性的理论的影响进行了讨论。(C)1999 Elsevier Science B.V.保留所有权利。
The size and density of graphs interact powerfully and subtly with other graph-level indices (GLIs), thereby complicating their interpretation. Here we examine these interactions by plotting changes in the distributions of several popular graph measures across graphs of varying sizes and densities. We provide a generalized framework for hypothesis testing as a means of controlling for size and density effects, and apply this method to several well-known sets of social network data; implications of our findings for methodology and substantive theory are discussed.
