Results of linear regression analysis on the effects of variation in the model parameters on mean diversity (D) and mean discordance (H) for 3,000 iterations and for 745 simulations. Values are the percentage of the variance in D or H explained by the model parameter (determined by using Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient), with blank cells representing non-significant correlations (P < 0.05, two-tailed distribution). Data for the Combined column result from analyzing the data for Regular, Random, and Mean-field together, comparing the effect of network structure with that of the other model parameters.
