    But when it comes to calculating the Group Betweenness Centralisation, I am not getting the same result using the same input-file with Pajek and SocNetV.
    Hi there,
    When calculating the GBC, you mention the reference of Wasserman & Faust, but I am getting a wrong result.

    Example:
    --------------------------------------------
    *Vertices 5
    1 "V1" 0.5 0.8 0.5000
    2 "V2" 0.8 0.4 0.5000
    3 "V3" 0.6 0.1 0.5000
    4 "V4" 0.25 0.6 0.5000
    5 "V5" 0.3 0.2 0.5000
    *Arcs
    1 2 1
    2 3 1
    2 5 1
    3 5 1
    3 1 1
    4 2 1
    5 4 1
    *Edges
    ---------------------------------------------
    Using Pajek and calculating the GBC on my own, GBC=0,45833.
    Using SocNetV: GBC=0,3125.

    As far as I know are both programs using Wasserman & Faust, p.192, 5.14 for calculating the GBC.
    Any guess what is causing the different results?
