Friendship ties within a classroom as a “network" object

Description

This is a network of strong friendship ties among 13 boys and 14 girls in a sixth-grade classroom, as collected by Hansell (1984) and reported by Wang and Wong (1987). Each student was asked if they liked each other student ``a lot", ``some", or ``much". Here we consider a strong friendship tie to exist if a student likes another student ``a lot." Also recorded is the sex of each student in the network attribute ``sex."
