edge thickness and the length of edge

[Former user]

Hi All,

I would have a quick question, regarding the interpretation of the obtained network.

I assume that the shorter the path between two communities the stronger the coupling?

This same for the width of edge. The wider the stronger the coupling?

Now, which of this parameters comes first when assessing strength of coupling?

Example. Let us assume that I have two systems: (1) Nodes A B connected by short and thin edge. (2) Nodes A B connected by long but very wide edge.

In which of these cases, coupling in stronger?

thank you

Distance between nodes does not mean anything. Thickness is the thing to look at in this case.
