dc.description.abstractThis dissertation develops both substantive and methodological themes on the topic of social networks. Substantively, I conduct experimental studies based on the game theoretical models that describe network formation in various settings. Methodologically, I review the procedure of cluster analysis that could be used to discover the nature and the number of behavioral rules used by individuals in network environments.
