Graph Theory: significant nodes / nonsignificant network
Dear Conn experts,
We are performing a graph theory analysis on our dataset and we have investigated the effect of a continuous variable on the clustering coefficient metric.
Our results show a significant effect on a network node (p = 0.02 with FDR correction) but not on the whole network (p = 0.52).
How can we interprete this result? Can we report that the effect does not impact on the whole network but significantly affects only a network node?
Thank you for your kind help and support
