kfamily

From Valente (1995) <dquote>Scholars at Seoul National University's School
of Public Health (Park, Chung, Han & Lee, 1974) collected data on the
adoption of family planning methods among all married women of child-bearing
age 25 in Korea villages in 1973 (N = 1,047).</dquote>

datasets

Empirical statistical analysis, visualization and simulation
    of network models of the diffusion of innovations. The package implements
    algorithms for calculating network diffusion statistics such as transmission
    rate, hazard rates, exposure models, network threshold levels, infectiousness
    (contagion), and susceptibility. The package is inspired by work published
    in Valente, et al., (2015) <DOI:10.1016/j.socscimed.2015.10.001>;
    Valente (1995) <ISBN:9781881303213>, Myers (2000) <DOI:10.1086/303110>,
    Iyengar and others (2011) <DOI:10.1287/mksc.1100.0566>,

Network Analysis for Diffusion of Innovations

kfamily function

The Korean Family Planning data were
stored on a Vax tape that Rogers had given to Marc Granovetter who then gave
it to his colleague Roland Soong (see Granovetter & Soong, 1983).  Granovetter
instructed Song to send the tape to me and I had it loaded on the Vax machine
at USC in 1990 and was able to download the data to a PC. The first two datasets
were acquired for my dissertation (Valente, 1991) and the third added as I
completed my book on Network Models of the Diffusion of Innovations (Valente,
1995; also see Valente, 2005).
