Cultural/social factors such as capital social and collective platforms are strongly based on social networks. These factors are responsible for the definition of specific quality on territories. However, besides it, physical factors are also relevant in the definition of quality. Both human and non-human factors work ensemble for defining the quality.
A summarised responseto explain the integrate human beings and non-human in social network analysis may not be enough; However, I have come across this article which may expatiate the scanario fully: "Social network analysis in the study of nonhuman primates: A historical perspective". Attached is also the URL to the article: "https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3121897/"
Hello:
We have performed some empirical studies in order to provide insights about the usability of social networks and the perceptions of them when they are used by elderly people. Moreover, during the next days we will continue with the experimentation in order to evaluate a usability evaluation method with software engineers as subjects; this method is aligned with ISO 25040 and uses a usability model based on the SQUARE standard. I will tell you our findings.
Best regards
It is possible to integrate human and non-human actors in a SNA. Where two different forms of nodes are integrated into a single SNA it is called a two-mode network analysis. You will find helpful information on this in Chapter 17 of Hanneman & Riddle's textbook available on open access at http://www.faculty.ucr.edu/~hanneman/nettext/.
I hope this is helpful to you. Best wishes, Louise.
Citation analysis and knowledge mapping are examples of working on human /non-human phenomena. Think about authors and their publications or authors and their institutes for example.
