Specification for the PWID contact network ERGM. The first five parameters model network structure while the last four model homophily effects: location (1, 2, 3), gender (M/F), age (less than 25, greater than 25), and injecting frequency (less than daily, at least daily). Positive homophily parameters indicate a propensity for two PWID to share a network tie when they have that attribute in common.
