Actors Diagram  \nA social network analysis (SNA) connects actors, which can be individuals (people) or organizations, through shared interests, values, financial ties, or other relationships. This method is used to study these connections, often represented visually as an actor diagram, which maps the relationships among various actors in the network. By using SNA, one can see who is connected to whom, identify key relationships, and understand the structure of influence and communication within the network.  \nTo create actor diagrams, various free tools are available. One example is the Social Network Visualizer (SocNetV) ( [https://socnetv.org](https://socnetv.org) ), an open-source software, which allows unlimited copying and modification. Figure 8.4.7. shows Social Network Visualizer displaying an actor diagram of a 65-actor network.  \nFigure 8.4.7. SocNetV loaded with a 65-actor network.  \nSocNetV Manual. pdf  \nAnother approach to visualizing relationships between actors is through an associative matrix, which displays connections in a table format. In an associative matrix, each row and column represent actors, and the cells indicate the presence or strength of a relationship between them. An Excel template for creating an associative matrix is provided as Template 8.13.  \n\n| \u003Cbr>Individuals / Organisation / Groups |  | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … |  |  |  |\n| 1 | A |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| 2 | B |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| 3 | C |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Evaluation Criteria (examples) |  |\n| 4 | D |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Know each (positive) | 1 |\n| 5 | E |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Work together | 10 |\n| 6 | F |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Closer connection or cooperation | 20 |\n| 7 | G |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Partner | 30 |\n| 8 | H |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Shareholder | 40 |\n| 9 | I |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Contact person / owner | 50 |\n| 10 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Know each other (negative) | -1 |\n| 11 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Work against each other | -10 |\n| 12 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | …. | …. |\n| 13 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Notes / remarks |  |\n| 14 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| 15 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| 16 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| 17 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| 18 | … |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  ","cbCaiufSMrN0QiBY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiufSMrN0QiBY","pdf",224848,"English","# Actors Diagram\n## Purpose of Actor Diagrams\n## Tools for Creating Actor Diagrams\n## Associative Matrix Approach\n## Excel Template Reference","[{\"question\":\"What is an actors diagram in social network analysis?\",\"answer\":\"An actors diagram represents relationships among actors in a social network.
