However, such models often require the network relationships to be mutually independent, after controlling for a set of covariates. To assess the validity of this assumption,we propose test statistics, under the logistic regression setting, for three important social network drivers. They are, respectively, reciprocity, centrality, and transitivity. The asymptotic distributions of those test statistics are obtained. Extensive simulation studies are also presented to demonstrate their finite sample performance and usefulness.展开更多
