Social ties and coordination on negative reciprocity: The role of affect (2008, background): “In fact, as argued by Rosenblat and Mobius (2004), technological advances that reduce communication costs, such as the internet, can make interaction among groups of friends even more important.”
Economics: An Emerging Small World (2004, background): “For formal studies of evolving social networks, see Moody (2004) and Rosenblat and Mobius (2004). no path between i and j in a network G, then we set .”
