Now my question is, under which conditions does the opposite happen?
Specifically, I am dealing with regressions in which I am trying to look at the contingent effect of direct and indirect ties in a collaboration network on the impact of inventions. I reproduce the outcomes of three regressions: In the first one, I only include direct ties dt, in the second one only indirect ties it, and in the third one I include dt and it (note both have a correlation of 0.87).
