Abstract:

This paper uses results from a large national survey to examine the relationship between social network size and the percentage of network members regularly contacted by email, mobile phone, landline phone, and in-person. Findings indicate that the percentage of network members regularly contacted by email and in-person remains constant as network size increases. In contrast, the percentage of network members regularly contacted by mobile phone and landline telephone decrease as network size increases. It is argued that the social accordances provided by email and in-person contact are particularly useful for maintaining large social networks.
