This term adds one network statistic to the model equaling
the sum of abs(attr[i]-attr[j])^pow for all edges (i,j) in
the network.
# binary: absdiff(attr,
# pow=1)# valued: absdiff(attr,
# pow=1,
# form="sum")
a vertex attribute specification (see Specifying Vertex attributes and Levels (?nodal_attributes) for details.)
power to which to take the absolute difference
how to aggregate tie values in a valued ERGM: "sum"
(the default) for a statistic of the form \(\sum_{i,j} x_{i,j}
y_{i,j}\), where \(y_{i,j}\) is
the value of dyad \((i,j)\) and \(x_{i,j}\) is the
term's covariate associated with it; and "nonzero" with the
edge considered to be present if its value is not 0. See
ergmTerm for more information.
