Notes: Homophily % refers to the percent of all friendship ties in the model that are between color-concordant individuals. Clustering % refers to the percent of all friendship ties where an ego and connected alter each share a friendship tie with a third individual (i.e., % friend-of-a-friend). ‘Begin’ outcomes are calculated at model time step 7; ‘end’ outcomes are calculated at time step 497 (70 weeks later).
