Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Each study participant will be polled only once through a network questionnaire. Following a cluster analysis representative cases will be asked for a single narrative interview without a follow-up study. Recruitment stops at theortical saturation (vgl. Glaser/ Strauss 1967: 112). The theory is considered saturated, when causal interrelations between subjective constructions of agency and network patterns have been established.	—
