“…For interference dynamics that do not require exposure through the network, but require uptake, researchers should look for networks that signal ideological similarity such as co-voting on bills. However, some interference dynamics for which uptake might be highly likely, such as reuse of issue framing in legislators’ public statements (Lin, Margolin, and Lazer 2016), or the adoption of strategies in responding to constituent requests (Grose, Malhotra, and Parks Van Houweling 2015), would require legislators to be exposed to each other through explicit communication channels. In applications where the network needs to play an important role in signaling exposure, networks such as Twitter-follower networks and caucus comembership may be more appropriate.…”
