Visualization of social networks in Stata using multidimensional scaling

I describe and illustrate the use of multidimensional scaling methods for visualizing social networks in Stata. The procedure is implemented in the netplot command. I discuss limitations of the approach and sketch possibilities for improvement. Copyright 2011 by StataCorp LP.netplot, mds, social network analysis, visualization, multidimensional scaling
