abstract |
We propose a measure of disassortativeness to summarize contact patterns relevant
to the transmission of directly transmitted infections. We discuss the properties
of this measure, describe standardization relative to homogeneous mixing, and generalize
it to multivariate contact structures. We explore some of its properties and apply
our methods to serological surveys of close contact infections and surveys of self-reported
social contacts obtained in several European countries. |
