The Friendship Paradox: on average, your friends have more friends than you do.

Dr. Jamie Radcliffe, University of Nebraska-Lincoln presents a seminar on the Friendship Paradox.

What Is The Friendship Paradox?

The Friendship paradox, first observed by Feld in 1991, is the fact that, on average, your friends have more friends than you do, and it's not because you're a mathematician.

About The Seminar
